Marketing Opportunities

The Idaho Wheat Commission often receives calls from customers interested in wheat with specific milling characteristics.  We work with elevator operators throughout the state to take advantage of these opportunities.  We also endeavor to educate elevator operators on trends in the industry that will work to their benefit.  Not all elevators are the same.  Each elevator operator has developed a set of customers and grain needs may vary from elevator to elevator.  We encourage you to maintain ties and have periodic conversations with at least a couple of elevator operators so you can know where your wheat will find its best market.

Idaho Crop Residue Burning Program

The crop residue burning (CRB) program is designed to enable growers to burn under certain conditions while protecting public health from smoke impacts. The program is managed by DEQ on lands other than the five Indian Reservations in Idaho.
Idaho Department of Environmental Quality works to ensure clean air, water, and land in the state and protect Idaho citizens from the adverse health impacts of pollution.  Growers must have completed DEQ training in proper burning techniques and good smoke management within the past five years.
