Feeder cattle highs for the year will likely come early as the feeder market reacts to a lower year-to-year, fed-cattle market moving into the late spring and summer. Feeder cattle basis levels in April and May could be highly erratic due to forced early movement of wheat cattle off winter grazing programs.

Kevin Good

As difficult as it is for a writer to find a publisher -admittedly a daunting task - it is twice as difficult for a publisher to sort through the chaff, select the wheat, and profitably publish a worthy list.

Olivia Goldsmith

If we can get biotechnology traits, we may be able to turn wheat around.

Dale Schuler

If we don't get rain in the next two weeks, we'll see some long term affects on the wheat.

Mark Ploger

One of the biggest things a lot of people around here do - one of the celebrities turned me on to it and they claim everybody in the industry is onto it - is wheat germ oil.

Anthony Griffin

As you get older, you find that often the wheat, disentangling itself from the chaff, comes out to meet you.

Gwendolyn Brooks

The prices are up because no one has wheat.

Jim Reese

Don't count out wheat unless it's dead. It all depends on the temperature and the rainfall that we get.

Curtis Thompson

I like to lose weight sensibly and not go on crash diets. I've tried Atkins, but it didn't work for me - so far the only one that has is the wheat-free diet.

Suzanne Shaw

We really don't have the fundamental support that we had several weeks ago, (as) added moisture continues to come across the Plains states, and even in the Midwest. Soil moisture has improved dramatically for the soft wheat crop.

Shawn Mccambridge

We're not harvesting anything from the forest. This is coming from what they consider a rapidly renewable resource. Which takes four months to grow, either sunflower seeds or wheat.

Tom Franta

That could give the Kansas City wheat market some support.

Shawn Mccambridge

The ultimate goal long-term -- we'd like to see between 10 and 15 percent of acres in counties we work in seeded to winter cereals -- winter wheat, winter rye.

Blake Vander Vorst

Reason clears and plants the wilderness of the imagination to harvest the wheat of art.

Austin O'Malley

This means we did add to the U.S. ending stocks. USDA's U.S. wheat ending stocks estimate of 542 million bushels is still adequate to our needs.

Shawn Mccambridge

We have become too selective, too elitist, too talent-mongering as I like to say, trying to select the athletic wheat from the athletic chaff.

Bob Bigelow

While modest recovery in net returns is seen for wheat, that will not likely discourage further reduction in wheat acreage.

Pat Westhoff

It (BHP) had first proposed that the wheat be provided on a deferred payment plan, and it had been advised by DFAT that that would be outside the UN sanctions and a breach of them.

John Agius

My family dumplings are sleek and seductive, yet stout and masculine. They taste of meat, yet of flour. They are wet, yet they are dry. They have weight, but they are light. Airy, yet substantial. Earth, air, fire, water; velvet and elastic! Meat, wheat and magic! They are our family glory!

Robert Tristram Coffin

I saw with open eyes/ Singing birds sweet/ Sold in the shops/ For the people to eat,/ Sold in the shops of/ Stupidity Street.// I saw in a vision/ The worm in the wheat,/ And in the shops nothing/ For people to eat;/ Nothing for sale in/ Stupidity Street.

Ralph Hodgson

It takes a good five-day period of nighttime temperatures staying above freezing for wheat to come out of dormancy.

Mark Ploger

Excluded by my birth and tastes from the social order, I was not aware of its diversity. Nothing in the world was irrelevant: the stars on a general's sleeve, the stock-market quotations, the olive harvest, the style of the judiciary, the wheat exchange, flower-beds. Nothing. This order, fearful and feared, whose details were all inter-related, had a meaning: my exile.

Jean Genet

Consumers will see higher prices on coffee beverages and even chocolate if the raw supplies get backed up at the ports. In agricultural products, prices of cereals and breads could decline. If we can't export the wheat and grain, then the excess supply will have to be consumed domestically, pushing down prices.

Mark Zandi

When inflation goes up and uncertainty sets in, more people will buy gold and silver. It has less to do with demand for use like wheat and aluminum and more to do with fears.

Troy Jones

That's huge for the wheat industry.

Chris Shaffer

What a country calls its vital economic interests are not the things which enable its citizens to live, but the things which enable it to make war. Petrol is much more likely than wheat to be a cause of international conflict.

Simone Weil

Brandon Wheat is a sophomore and probably the best raw talent we have at the guard position. I've told everybody that (the kinds of struggles we've had) happen and that we're capable of playing better than we have played. We have eight of our last 12 at home (beginning with last Friday) and the kids are resilient and working hard.

Todd Phillips

Two hundred years ago cooking was very time consuming. Actually, for most families until after the 1850s, foods were very limited in their variety. The average winter diet of a southern American was fat back and corn-mill, along with some wheat products that you could store through winter.

Kathryn Beach

The main objective of the Marker Assisted Selection project is to incorporate modern selection technologies to increase the competitiveness of these public wheat breeding programs.

Jorge Dubcovsky

Usually wheat germ comes in tablets, but you want the oil. That's one little secret, especially for people who are living in climates where it's dry and they want to get some moisture in their skin.

Anthony Griffin

Our position is that we're not opposed to biotechnology, although we had specific concerns with Roundup Ready wheat.

Maureen Fitzhenry

Wheat is a hardy plant but it can't survive everything. It's not a very good situation.

Mark Ploger

Given the rhetoric of John Howard and the supposed volunteering of the wheat board to not use their power of veto, we have decided to put that to the test, to see if it's just talk or reality.

Peter Howard

Corn is in the throes of a general grain floor correction and it was tough for it to come up for air with the losses in wheat and the losses in the soybean meal pit.

John Kleist

The US is aggressively targeting bilateral trade agreements around the world with countries that represent over 30 per cent of Canadian wheat export markets and over 45 per cent of Canadian barley export markets, and Australia's also pursuing bilateral support.

Maureen Fitzhenry

People here want to prove that they belong. The lists I put at the start of every [decade] chapter noting arrivals and departures [births and deaths] really reinforces that Saskatchewan's greatest export has not been wheat, but people. People here want to show they are as good -- and can achieve as much -- as anyone in any part of the country or the world.

John Chaput

Where we run into problems is when we warm up in February. Wheat will be looking for moisture and may not find it.

Curtis Thompson

You sell premium wine by giving consumers a sense of place. It's best not sold as a commodity like wheat.

Kurt Gollnick

Ninety-five percent of the wheat we grind is from North Dakota. We do bring in small amounts from Minnesota and Montana, but we don't grind any Canadian wheat at all.

Vance Taylor

We've been able to respond to their needs. We sell spring wheat in 100 markets each year, and they're consistently our third largest (market) behind Japan and the Philippines. They pay premium prices, and they pay cash.

Neal Fisher

Wheat in many areas greened up in January and can no longer be considered dormant. Some growth may be taking place, especially where moisture conditions are good and daytime highs have been in the 60s or 70s.

Jim Shroyer

WHEAT, n. A cereal from which a tolerably good whisky can with some difficulty be made, and which is used also for bread. The French are said to eat more bread _per capita_ of population than any other people, which is natural, for only they know how to make the stuff palatable.

Ambrose Bierce

Wheat in many areas greened up in January and can no longer be considered dormant.

Jim Shroyer

This complicates it a little. She can't have the school lunch because there's wheat on every plate. So I pack her lunch at home.

Lynn Wolter

I'm hurt, hurt and humiliated beyond endurance, seeing the wheat ripening, the fountains never ceasing to give water, the sheep bearing hundreds of lambs, the she-dogs, until it seems the whole country rises to show me its tender sleeping young while I feel two hammer-blows here instead of the mouth of my child.

Federico Garcia Lorca

We applaud the FDA for defining what whole grain is. Unfortunately, the FDA has not defined any claims concerning the grain content of foods. Consumers should continue to check labels. Grains such as wheat, rice, oats or corn must be described as 'whole' in the list of ingredients to be considered a significant source of whole grain and also should be one of the first three ingredients listed.

Ruth Litchfield

Due to depleted stocks, GMB [state-run food distributor Grain Marketing Board] is now giving us 400 tons of wheat a week, down from 600 tons.

David Govere

It took a long time for wheat to become successfully naturalized in China. It gradually spread from northwestern China to the East and to the South.

Lu Houyuan

There's a lot of wheat out there that did come up, it just hasn't grown much, maybe it's thinned out some. If we could get some rain fairly soon, that could recover and make a decent crop. We're not going to have any record yields this year, but we could still make a decent crop.

Brent Bean

Choose a variety of snacks. Try new things. Try new wheat crackers. Try different fruits. Variety is important to get a broad variety of vitamins and minerals.

Jenny Gardner

We try to get them here once a year to learn about changes in Montana, what new companies and products are here and how to better promote the state. Asia has always been one of the biggest trading areas for Montana, primarily for wheat and beef products.

Mark Bisom

If we produce 20 percent of the country's wheat in this little number here, you've got to believe the impact it's going to have on the national production, ... I mean we're going to run into food shortages no doubt in my mind, for political gain.

Chris Thorne

It sounds like a single desk for the wheat board and that got them into trouble.

Gary Dufour

We have two weeks of wheat stocks in the country.

David Govere

It's hard to figure out how to separate the wheat from the chaff.

John Mancini

Newpaper editors are men who separate the wheat from the chaff, and then print the chaff.

Adlai E. Stevenson Jr.

Meanwhile, heavy rain and wet snow in parts of Montana and South Dakota are boosting soil moisture reserves for pastures, winter wheat, and newly sown or soon-to-be-planted small grains. In contrast, dry, windy weather on the southern High Plains is maintaining severe stress on pastures and winter grains.

High Plains

White wheat is worth less today than when I started farming in 1972. The safety net, frankly, is gone.

Peter Goldmark

Should they lose all that in the absence of finding another market for that wheat, you'd expect earnings to be impacted.

Greg Canavan

Yeah, but it costs 17 cents a bushel to truck the wheat from the field to Collins (the nearest 110-car loader).

Gary Gollehon

In the past, if I only licensed my bread-making patent to a miller if he also bought his wheat from my brother then I was liable to lose that patent. That provision was lost in the Competition Act of 2000.

Ross Anderson

If we were in a super-inflationary period, like some suggest [we're in], it would be better to have a tanker of oil in your backyard, or a bushel of wheat.

Robert Stein

Nitrogen levels in the soil are high after peas. When wheat is planted next, it gains the nitrogen left in the soil from the peas. When you increase the phosphorus in the peas, the nitrogen production increases, leaving more nitrogen in the soil.

Dr. Jed Waddell

We knew there were always wheat and dairy derivatives in there, but they were not the protein component.

Cathy Kapica

AWB could not inform DFAT and the UN that that debt was being paid out of these two (wheat) contracts without disclosing that the actions in 1995/1996 had themselves been outside the sanctions.

John Agius

Serbia produces wheat and so - understandably - they want to protect their farmers from imports of cheap wheat and bread. But we have our own port and think that we should give our people the cheapest prices for bread, no matter where we import it from.

Milo Djukanovic

This is a picture of manure. In Ukraine we call this Ukrainian gold because when you spread it on the land it produces the wheat we turn into bread.

Sergei Shapoval

The value that Taiwan places on being able to purchase a reliable supply of high quality wheat from this region year after year is an example of what can be accomplished and the beneficial relationship that can develop when farmers work with their customers to promote their products.

John Hoeven

Editor: a person employed on a newspaper whose business it is to seperate the wheat from the chaff, and to see that the chaff is printed.

Elbert Hubbard

The soybean complex was the first commodity to feel the index funds presence, but wheat and corn are attracting the index funds' attention as well.

Joe Victor

Most of the wheat, except that in far northwest Kansas, was in the early boot to heading stages of growth at the time of the freezes. Damage can be especially severe if the freeze occurred in the late boot to flowering stages, but wheat can also be injured by a hard freeze at other growth stages.

Jim Shroyer

Indian authorities have fully cleared the wheat for human consumption.

Peter Mcbride

The wheat producing industry is already at a critical point. The next five years could be disastrous for wheat farmers if these projections become reality.

Dale Schuler

If they're saying there's wheat and dairy derivatives in the oil, as far as anyone with this disease is concerned there's actually wheat in it.

Jillian Williams

It is the inept handling of buffer stock, which has resulted in such a shameful decision (import wheat).

Prakash Javadekar

Grain shipments are beginning to bounce back to levels reflective of the high volumes produced in 2004 and 2005. The Canadian Wheat Board's (CWB) recent take-up of grain offered for sale by farmers and the steady delivery of non-CWB grains and oilseeds despite current commodity prices are reasons for increasing optimism about grain shipments over the balance of the fiscal year.

Brian Hayward

If someone is really sensitive, they need to be aware that this product at one point derived from wheat and dairy.

Cathy Kapica

These wheat lines will be used in the new project to deploy the targeted genes into thousands of lines across the breeding programs, with the help of high-throughput genotyping laboratories established by the USDA. Those laboratories will use modern equipment to provide breeders with the thousands of molecular markers required for this approach.

Jorge Dubcovsky

Wheat is resilient. The wheat plant does everything it can to survive. It hangs on to every minute drop. Wheat is a survivor.

Mark Ploger

Where teams score on us is when they score easy baskets. (Wheat is) very talented with the ball in his hands, but we're trying to bring him along in his mind. These kids are all we've got and they're going to keep giving effort and heart. Maybe the learning on the fly will translate into some rapid growth.

Todd Phillips

Whole wheat waffles; and we had hash browns made out of reconstituted potatoes.

Eric Roberts
