Wheat growers must decide
if they will benefit by partici

Farmer's newsletter on wheat
gives a budgeting method that
farmers can use to compare
the returns from participation
vs. non-participation in the
program. Growers can get a
copy of the USDA newsletter
by calling or stopping by the
OSU Extension Service office
in Heppner.

begin at 7:30 p.m. at the
