Les Schwab Tire Center 124 North Main Streeet, Heppner 541-676-9481 3 reported several significant developments, including: -OSU’s search for the wheat breeder position vacated by Dr. Jim Peterson, has been narrowed down to two qualified candidates - Dr. Bob Zem etra and Dr. Ed Souza. Information about these candidates and their interview schedules is available on the Crop and Soil Science web page at http://cropandsoil.or- egonstate.edu/ under Public Events. Recordings of their on-campus seminar will also be posted at this site. They hope to have the new wheat breeding program leader on board in early 2011 . -The OSU College of Agricultural Sciences (CA S) is facing severe budget cuts in the current and upcoming years. Based on the premise that Branch Experiment Stations (BES) generate value for local stakeholders, the CAS is expecting each BES to gen erate 25% of its base operat ing budget (base salaries for all employees and supplies and services) from local support beginning on July 1, 2011 with a phase-in period lasting 2-4 years. Funds to support research projects are not considered in the calculation. -In the Federal Pro- grams/Transportation Com mittee meeting the subject of disaster determinations came up. Lynn Voigt, state executive director and Josh Hanning, district director discussed how a county in the state of Oregon might go about getting a disaster declaration made in order to trigger SURE program eligibility. This issue will be one of the topics at the January meeting as well. In the meantime, growers are encouraged to make an appointment to discuss their 2009 crop yields with Kyle Camine in the Hep pner FSA office to see if their farm would qualify. Remember to take 2009 crop insurance indemnity info also. T h e B o a rd o f Directors o f the Oregon Wheat Growers League (OWGL) and the Oregon Wheat Commission (OWC) agreed to consider the po tential establishment of a new executive position, one that would jointly oversee the operation of the OWGL and OWC, and would be jointly funded by the two organizations. The new position would be located in the Portland OWC of fice. The OWGL’s existing office and administrative support staff in Pendle ton would be maintained. Growers are encouraged to weigh in on this discussion before the annual meeting in Portland December 1-3. Questions can be directed to Shannon Rust at 541-326- 8202 or the OWGL office at 541-276-7330.
