Re: Seed Saving - Correction

I've been conversing w/ a Kansas wheat farmer and apparently seed dynamics
for wheat are different vs. other row crops. That is, there are no
hybrids available in the U.S. for wheat. So most KS farmers wheat farmers
DO save back wheat seed. There's just little economic return in purcasing
wheat seed for which no heterosis exists.
