LINCOLN, Neb. (RFD News) — Nebraska wheat is gaining national attention not only for strong yields in the field, but also for its performance in the bakery.

In her conversation with RFD News, Frels explained why the award is considered a significant recognition for Nebraska wheat producers and researchers. She also details how the evaluation process goes beyond yield numbers alone, with researchers and industry professionals examining milling performance, baking characteristics, and overall end-use quality.
