Progress 01/01/12 to 12/31/12
Outputs OUTPUTS: Nine variety trial experiments were conducted around the state. Growers and other stakeholders were exposed to new knowledge about wheat varieties. A Jan. 8 conference and May 15 field day were used for this purpose. Information was also disseminated on the internet and in a hard copy bulletin. PARTICIPANTS: Numerous research specialists and faculty throughout the region belong to this project and collaborate and share ideas at an annual meeting. TARGET AUDIENCES: Growers, agents, consultants and all small grain stakeholders. PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period.
Impacts A changed in grower behavior occurred in growers who attended the winter meeting and field day. New knowledge was learned. The impact of a new variety can register into the millions of dollars.

Progress 01/01/11 to 12/31/11
Outputs OUTPUTS: Field Days: May 17, 2011: met with growers and other stakeholders at the site of one of the variety trials and discussed the test, the prevalent diseases etc, and how result would be disseminated after harvest. PARTICIPANTS: Variety testing specialist and personnel in the wheat breeding project. TARGET AUDIENCES: All stakeholders connected with the wheat industry in KY: growers, millers, bakers, agri business personnel, crop consultants, recommenders, county agents PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period.
Impacts Data from this research is published on the web and in a variety bulletin. The data impact growers' knowledge of varieties and affects their actions by influencing the wheat variety they plant the following year.
