All my life I have been striving for highest protein spring wheat. Some years they will pay up to 3.00 premium on high protein wheat. Sent a load up to flour mill in New Prague, Mn. this a.m. Trucker called back and said it got rejected because protein is to high. I said you mean it is to low. No, you heard me right, it is to high. Unbelievable. I have had my grain buyer calling around for 2 hours trying to find a place to unload this wheat. No luck. It looks like he is going to have to bring it back and put it back in the bin.

But I have worked so hard over the years to build a solid market for the straw I bale and sell to hobbiest and horse farmers that I hate to give that up. Oh well, I will keep you informed as to how this pans out.
