about the committee

Mission statement

Wheat and barley are the principal grain crops produced in Montana and are agricultural resources of the first magnitude in the economy of the state. These commodities enter a domestic and world market that is highly competitive. Therefore, it is the mission of the Montana Wheat and Barley Committee to protect and foster the health, prosperity, and general welfare of this industry by encouraging and promoting intensive, scientific, and practical research into all phases of the wheat and barley culture and production, marketing, and end-use and, further, to aid in the development of markets for wheat and barley grown in Montana.
