NDAC Progresses
With New Wheat
For Drouth Area
This ls Serious Business
A new wheat developed 'at the NDAC
experiment station by L. R. Waldron
has outyielded all other spring wheats
for the years 1934 1935, 1936 and 1937.
This wheat, which has not yet been
named but which goes by the number
2592, is resistant to leaf and stem rust
and is f~irly drouth resistant. It has
good milling and baking qualities.
This wheat is the result of crosses
made by using Hope, Ceres and Flor-
ence. The good qualities of each one
have been combined in No. 2592--rust
resistance from Hope. drouth resistance
from Ceres and size of kernel from
Florence.
In 60 trials in the last 3 years it has
outyielded its nearest competitor by
2½ bushels. In 1936, the dry year, it
checked against Ceres which is very
drouth resistant. In the rust years of
1932 and 1937 it was checked against
Thatcher which is rust resistant. ]
The yield of this wheat in NorthI
Dakota has been about equal to the]
yield of winter wheat in Nebraska.
Much effort has been put forth trying]
to develop a hardy winter wheat for]
North Dakota, but not with success, f
However, somewhat the same yields j
are being secured with this new springt'
wheat, but with better quality.
This new wheat is now being increas-
ed and it is expected that-distribution
will be made to farmers early in 1939.
It takes a number of years to develop
a new wheat. The start is made with
a single hybrid kernel, hundreds of
different strains of wheat may arise,
and it is necessary to measure the com-
parative values of all these, not Just for
yield, ~)ut for other qualities as resist-
ance to diseases and milling and bak-
ing quality. This work requires many
experiments technically set uP and lo-
cated in different localities where the
state has substations and at the Feder-
al Great Plains Field Station at Man-
d~n. The most promising strains must
be increased until there is enough
wheat for making milling and baking
tests. In the meantime its character-
lsties a:; to growth, drouth resistance.
rust and smut resistance, stiffness ot
straw and yielding~qualiti~ are studied.
The time is shortened considerably by
growing the wheat in the greenhouse
in the winter, since 2 crops can be
grown in a year.
Composing a letter to Santa is indeed serious business. Tim wrlt~sg
may not be literary, but he usually manages to fill the orders.
