First NSF.

My heart is filled with gratitude! Foremost, I want to thank the love of my life and incredibly talented researcher @shysol4u who has been my strength through the thick and thin of life! Dual-career with kids is a spin ball; you really need to learn how to play it!

[SD Wheat @wheatsd]

Through partnerships with @uswheatassoc, your checkoff helps promote U.S. #wheat to international buyers who value quality and reliability.

Those relationships help build demand and keep markets open for the grain grown right here at home.
