OM DENNE EPISODE
October 1st, 2026 is the final day to submit yield data in the 2026 National Wheat Foundation’s Wheat Yield Contest, and with new categories to compete in and tough conditions to contend with, this year’s competition promises to be fierce.
To bring us the latest updates on the contest and the wheat season, we’re joined by Anne Osborne, Executive Director of the National Wheat Foundation, and Boyd Heilig, a farmer from Moore, Montana and the Director of the National Wheat Foundation board.
They’ll discuss a little history of the contest, what new innovations and categories growers can expect to see this year and into the future, and dig into how the contest helps individual farmers, and the industry alike, continue to grow the best quality and most product wheat in the world.
This special edition of FieldPosts is brought to you by the National Wheat Foundation in Partnership with Bayer, WestBred, BASF, Dyna Gro Seed, and Nutrien Ag Solutions.
