Description
Summary:Long-range forecasts of wheat quality and the bread-making premium can help decision-making for growers of Group 2 bread-making wheat varieties. These growers can use forecasts to decide whether or not extra inputs to achieve high protein and to protect quality will be worthwhile. Forecasts of quality can be made in spring from the known effect of the winter North Atlantic Oscillation. The inclusion of economic and production data on wheat should enable the premium to be forecast.
