Abstract

Should I feed wheat? This is a question which many wheat/cattle producers have probably been asking themselves. As we all know, wheat is now cheap, about $3.20-3.60/bushel or $107-120/ton. There was a large carryover of wheat (well above 1 billion bushels) prior to the start of this year’s harvest—one of the highest carryovers in many years. Moreover, a possible record crop of near or above 2.5 billion bushels may be harvested next year.
