Winter Wheat Production Up: Winter wheat production across the
United States based on May 1 conditions is forecast at 1.78 billion

Agricultural Statistics Service. Yield is forecast at 44.3 bushels per
acre, from 40.2 million acres. Hard red winter wheat production
across the U.S. is forecast up 5 percent from a year ago to 1.01 billion
bushels. Soft red wheat production will be 551 million bushels, up
54 percent from last year. Soft white wheat will be at 192 million

First Rail Cars Move to Cascade Grain: On April 13th the first train of
corn to supply Cascade Grain moved to the facility in Clatskanie.
Chuck Carlson, CEO of Cascade Grain, said he expects the ethanol
facility to begin grinding the corn this month. Under full production, the
facility will use two trains per week.

Feasibility Study On Using Waste Straw To Be Conducted: The
Oregon Department of Agriculture has approved funding from the
Alternatives to field Burning Research Program to be given to Lane
County for research studying the feasibility of converting waste grass
seed straw into cellulosic ethanol. The study will use annual
ryegrass straw which is burned after harvest and not suitable for
animal feed. The hope is the straw can be used for ethanol which
would cut the amount needed to be burned.
