Educational Seminars Offered to Idaho Wheat Growers
In the old days, if you wanted to go to an educational seminar, you’d have to get in your pick-up and drive to someplace where it was being given. The Idaho Wheat Commission will be presenting a series of web-based grower education seminars (webinars). Each webinar will be approximately one hour. Participation is simple and free! Here’s Idaho wheat commission spokesperson Teresa Waterman: “the March 22 webinar which is a series of educational programs that the Idaho wheat commission is sponsoring will be presenting Vince Pearson who is vice president of overseas operations of the US wheat Associates, and he’s going to be discussing world wheat demand, supply, and prices. This is an opportunity for our growers to learn about the global factors behind this year’s surge in exports and run-up in prices and gain current perspective on world plantings, production and prices. We are presenting this webinar at this time because a lot of farmers are trying to make decisions on what they are going to be planting this spring and he will be giving you some ideas about what it looks like out there in the world market for prices and production.” So wheat growers that’s tomorrow at 8 AM Mountain time.The website is Idaho wheat.org.
