For more than a decade, the Kentucky Small
Grain Growers’ Association and the University of Kentucky
Wheat Science Group have been working together to develop and
release wheat technology that keeps farmers’ needs in mind. We
have focused our latest efforts on developing a wheat variety
and releasing it under the terms that hold PRODUCER
profitability as the priority. We envisioned genetics that
would reach the marketplace more quickly and at a lower cost.
Of equal importance is maintaining a product that could move
from farmer to farmer with fewer strings attached.
Our efforts created PEMBROKE.
