FOTM: How MILAS supports the milling industry with quality based pricing
For the milling, malting and bakery industries, ingredient quality control has always been one of the most important challenges. Now more than ever, consumers are becoming more aware of healthy eating habits and their nutritional benefits, which is why quality control should take the front seat within the productional workflow. As an industry specialist, Adifo has packed a ton of powerful ...

Measuring grain protein concentration with in-line near infrared reflectance spectroscopy
The advent of near infrared (NIR) on-combine sensors gives growers the opportunity to measure the grain protein concentration of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) during harvest. A study consisting of three sequential experiments (laboratory bench, combine test stand, and field) was conducted to evaluate the performance of an in-line, NIR reflectance spectrometer, referred to as the ProSpectra Grain ...

Effects of the chromosome region including the Gpc-B1 locus on wheat grain and protein yield
The recent cloning of the Gpc-B1 gene from Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides (Körn. ex Asch. and Graebn.) Thell. (DIC hereafter) chromosome 6BS revealed that modern wheat varieties have a nonfunctional allele. The DIC allele accelerates senescence and increases grain protein concentration (GPC) relative to the nonfunctional allele, but its effect on yield is not known. Here we describe the ...

Development of a PCR assay and marker-assisted transfer of leaf rust and stripe rust resistance genes LR57 and YR40 into hard red winter wheats
The wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)-Aegilops geniculata introgression T5DL·5DS-5MgS(0.95), with stripe rust resistance gene Yr40 and leaf rust resistance gene Lr57, is an effective source of resistance against most isolates of the rust pathogen in Kansas and India. Rust resistance genes Lr57 and Yr40 were transferred to the hard red winter wheat (HRWW) cultivars Jagger and Overley by standard ...

Feature of the month: Quality based price adjustments for commodities in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations
As an ERP consultant for ADIFO, specialized in the nutrition industry, people often ask me whether it is possible to adjust the price of commodities during the intake, based on the quality? Thanks to MILAS, based on Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, the answer is yes. Commodities that are used in the nutritional supply chain, such as wheat or soy, will have varying levels ...

Chicago Council lists three-decade changes in greenhouse gases and average temperature
In 2011, we wrote a column, “Global warming is happening: How should farmers respond?” (http://agpolicy.org/weekcol/549.html). In that column we began by saying, “There was a time when one could legitimately argue that there was a lack of scientific agreement over the issue of the role of humans in global warming and even whether we were in a cooling or warming period. It is ...

Soil moisture data and Water Driven Yield Potential support confident decision making
I was introduced to Crop Intelligence and soil moisture probes in the spring of 2018 by Ryan Hutchison. That fall, I joined South Country Equipment as a Crop Intelligence Agronomist and put two stations on my family farm in SE Saskatchewan for the 2019 season. This was De Roo Family Farms first year using Crop Intelligence, but I knew we could trust the data to push our yields higher. Weather is ...

Wheat grain quality response to tillage and rotation with field Pea
Preceding spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) with field pea (Pisum sativum L.) can enhance wheat grain yield in a wheat-pea (WP) rotation compared with continuous wheat (WW). The pea-rotation benefits to wheat grain quality are uncertain. A 6-yr study was conducted to determine (i) if grain protein content, kernel weight, and test weight were enhanced for wheat in a WP rotation compared with WW, ...

Quantifying straw removal through baling and measuring the long-term impact on soil quality and wheat production
Crop residues are considered the feedstock of choice for the production of ethanol, but removing crop residues may negatively impact soil productivity. The objectives were to quantify the proportion of total aboveground crop residues removed through baling and to evaluate the effects of 50 yr of straw removal with baling on soil quality and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. The first study ...

White wheat grain quality changes with genotype, nitrogen fertilization, and water stress
The production of hard white winter (HWW) wheats (Triticum aestivum L.) with acceptable protein content and quality over different environments requires the correct combination of genotypes and management practices. The objectives of this study were to evaluate moisture deficit and N management on grain protein and quality of seven HWW and two soft white winter (SWW) genotypes, and to identify ...

AminoA+ Update and Autumn Recommendations 2016
AminoA+ Update With harvest 2016 coming to a close and also the first year of our commercial sales of AminoA+ we thought we should review the results and also make some recommendations based on this years’ experience. Yields OSR and Winter Barley yields were reportedly generally 30% down on 2015 levels this is undoubtedly a results of lack of sunlight in the early summer. (Two ...
