Subject: falling # in wheat questions


Rivers, MB
Here in Canada, falling # is kind of new to us because of our beloved grading system and wheat board. however, things have changed and falling # is something to learn more about from you south of the border.

1. Is falling # a major grading factor for you?
2. Do all elevators buy based on falling #
3. What is considered a good falling # for milling wheat (talking hard red spring and hard red winter)
4. Will a 350 falling # of hard red winter give you the same quality of flour as a #350 falling # of hard red spring wheat. Or is the falling # of hard red winter lower than hard red spring wheat typically
5. Does fusarium/scab affect falling #?

We have some general purpose wheat (most buyers won't buy it as milling wheat) but it has a falling # of 415. Is that a good falling #??
