Sorry, not marketing. We are stopped harvesting wheat because of excess green soft kernels. Overall field sample varies from 13 to 18 with the odd spike higher. What to do??

I stopped too, not much we can do but wait I think. -
I'd be tempted to do some and put it on air if that's an option.Comment

Check the forecast: rain starting Sunday evening will total more than we got all growing season. Got propane?Comment

How many % green can I have and still keep a 1 or 2 red spring wheat grade? Not much wheat around this year locally, so no blending power.
A lot of my green kernals will shrink and turn dark green. They always call them frost on the grade sheets.
Hate to put it in an air bin and haul out #3. With prices so high, they will be extra tough grading.Comment

Feed wheat is worth more than number 1. Make hay while the sun shines....Comment

The seed has been going on air and commercial into the dryer. I'm running out of good aeration and almost to the end of the commercial wheat. Still would like to hold a 2 on the commercial stuff. Thanks for the replies, I don't think I'm the only one. Luckily didn't have any green kernels in the 25 bu/ac stuff.Comment

Exactly. Had a text from local pig barn today offering $11 for feed wheat, $8 feed barley. Surely in Alberta you are even higher.Originally posted by Herc View PostComment

If they stay green they can be picked as grass green 0.8% in a #1, 2.0% in a #2.Originally posted by poorboy View Post
If they shrivel up and go dark green, immature, then they’ll more than likely get included in subjective grade and make it at least a #2Comment

Take it before weather changes
Its amazing how what is down graded at harvest but not even looked at within a few months ..... happens every year . Picky when combines roll but by January it magically changes lolComment
