What was accomplished under these goals?
The restructuring of Husker Genetics/NU Foundation Seed Division continues on a daily basis. The goal is to be structured as a business unit capable of staying abreast of current seed industry needs to maximize the potential of the GMO and nonGMO germplasms, varieties and hybrids developed at UNL while fulfilling our support function to all of NU'S Breeding Projects. The transition of Husker Genetics continues with NUtech Ventures. Marketing and commercialization functions of Husker Genetics are being strengthened by NUtech Ventures to better support the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources. This transition will continue to support the establishment of a brand for market identity for all university releases creating value and recognition for our developments. The wheat industry continues to change with the mergers and acquisitions across the globe. The strength of our wheat project has created tremendous research and development opportunities with numerous multinational bioscience companies. BioFuels continue to influence our demands for seed. Hybrid Pearl Millet and Sweet Sorghum are being increased and evaluated for potential licensing agreements. Renewed interest in conventional soybean varieties in the marketplace brings UNL's soybean project to the forefront of its strengths. The Edible Bean and Proso Millet projects are developing new lines for commercialization. Production of two hybrid sweet sorghum lines was done for the first time. Production of two Identity Preserved HRWW lines occurred as well. Demand for "Husker Genetics Brand Overland", a HRWW, continues to grow with license agreements in eight states. This variety has improved yield with a multistate adaptability from Kansas to Wisconsin. The sale of foundation seed wheat continues to expand geographically with licenses in twelve states. Nebraska developed wheat varieties cover large areas of the High Plains moving into the Red River Valley. Husker Genetics Settler CL Brand HRWW continues to expand its market share and geography. Husker Genetics McGill Brand HRWW and Husker Genetics Robidoux Brand HRWW were commercialized. RR soybean lines with higher yields under more diverse conditions continue to bolster production for Nebraska farmers. Superior conventional soybean varieties give farmers a choice of management programs. New triticale varieties for grazing continue to top the trails. Winter Barley is regaining demand for feed. Switchgrass seed is being requested from coast to coast for testing. Biofuel and Forage crop requests are developing into license agreements. "Coyne", a Great Northern Edible Bean, received excellent field reviews for commercialization. Identity Preserved Wheat Lines are being commercialized for production in Nebraska and the High Plains.

The goal is to be structured as a business unit capable of saying abreast of current seed industry needs to maximize the potential of the GMO and non-GMO germplasms, varieties and hybrids developed at UNL while fulfilling our support function to all of NU'S Breeding Projects. Total number of staff has been reduced by two FTE positions while maintaining the level of support for the breeding projects. A shared position with another operational unit has enhanced our productivity and efficiency. A number of genetic lines were licensed to commercial companies and certified growers this past year. These lines include wheat, food grade soybeans, Roundup Ready soybeans and grasses. Wheat continues to be our highest volume in sales again this year. However, soybean sales are gaining while wheat sales remain static. New Clearfield wheat is being increased this year as a complimentary line to Infinity
CL with a different adaptation area. A Waxy Wheat is being grown under irrigation for a milling test. Also, a new disease resistant wheat line is being blown up for release. Yield and quality of the wheat crop was excellent compared to the previous season. The soybean seed is satisfactory due to unusually dry down of the plants, green stems and over dried seed. Fall seed harvest and winter wheat sowing were completed earlier than previous years.
Impacts

The UN Foundation Seed Division continues to undergo major changes. This past crop year marked the second year Roundup Ready Soybeans were marketed to seed companies. Wheat continues to consume most of the sales volume for FSD however Triticale variety sales are increasing rapidly. Licensing of varieties has been tried on a limited basis. In January of 2003 Jeffrey Noel was hired as the Director of FSD. Jeff is currently looking at several different options to move FSD forward as the seed industry continues to change. Yields for seed production are good to excellent for irrigated acres and about 50% of normal for non-irrigated acres. Quality on both irrigated and non-irrigated acres appears to be good to excellent despite the summer drought. A warm and dry winter with a rainy period during June coupled with extreme heat during July, August and most of September hurt production. Rains in late September were too late to help most production but will help germinate
winter wheat.

The UN Foundation Seed Division continues to undergo major changes. This past crop year marked the first time Roundup Ready Soybeans were marketed to seed companies. FSD expects to have U of Nebraska varieties grown on approximately 40,000 acres during 2003, the first year varieties will be available to farmers. Six new wheat varieties were released in 2002, two general release HRWW varieties, two licensed HRWW varieties and two HWWW varieties. The licensed varieties are the first wheat varieties handled in this manner by FSD. A center pivot irrigation system and upgrades to small plot gravity irrigation during 2002 have enabled FSD to reduce labor costs and ensure a more stable supply of foundation seed. The Director of FSD resigned in July of 2002. As of the writing of this report we are in the process of identifying candidates to interview for the position. Yields for seed production are good to excellent for irrigated acres and about 50% of normal for
non-irrigated acres. Quality on both irrigated and non-irrigated acres appears to be good to excellent despite the summer drought. A warm and dry winter with a rainy period during planting coupled with extreme heat during July and August hurt production. Rains in late August helped some of the later planted, later maturing soybean varieties. Rains in the fall are adequate to establish winter wheat.
Impacts
The University of Nebraska Foundation Seed Division provides quality foundation seed to certified seed growers and private companies in Nebraska and surrounding states. FSD is the only source of crop varieties developed by UN faculty for use in Nebraska. Public varieties of wheat control approximately 80% of the wheat seed sales in Nebraska. Soybean varieties with the Roundup Ready gene are quickly establishing market share. Cereal grains and native grasses comprise most of the other products FSD makes available to farmers through seed companies.

Nebraska Foundation Seed is the largest Foundation Seed Organization in the United States with 110 nestablished varieties,inbred lines and hybrids. In the year 2001 many seed plant upgrades were done to enhance seed quality and separation of food grade seed lines and genetically modified seed lines. Do to separation demand in the grain markets and international markets it is important that separation be made for demand on both seed lines gmo vs. nongmo. Other important plant upgrades are cushion boxes and rubber layers for softer landings for seed intead of hard metal. Hard metal has a tendency to create stress cracks in soybeans. Foundation seed also upgraded grain bin drying capacity for quality issues. Every year for the the last ten years at least a bin of seed has been lost to improper drying methods and equipment. A bin of wheat at 1500 bu at $4.00 is $6000 over ten years is $60,000. Fourteen new fans were put on the grain bin system. Nebraska Foundation Seed is
working toward releasing chemical tolerant wheat to the IMI class of chemicals Spring wheats will be first winters wheats will follow. This year over 25 seed companies are testing our new Roundup Ready license products for their seed lineups for licensing University of Nebraska Roundup Ready soybeans. Licensed T441 and T422 triticales to companies in 2001. Released 94654 as Wahoo hard winter red wheat.
