Montana Wheat and Barley Committee
The Montana Wheat and Barley Committee is a producer-funded and producer-directed checkoff organization that has supported local research and global market development since 1967. This hub tracks published work tied to its research investments, including wheat stem sawfly resistance, solid-stem breeding, grain quality, and dryland cropping systems in the Northern Great Plains.
Reports use the public sample. Complete portfolio reporting is available through a paid hub partnership.

Separate from publication counts
These are indicators of the indexed research record. They do not measure institutional quality or economic return.
Evidence for the next decision
What the research found
Read the result, understand its limits, and follow the evidence to its source.
Measured results need a closer review.
Indexed publications are a starting point. Treatment comparisons, original measurements and study conditions need to be connected before this hub can demonstrate a field outcome.
Commodity board · Managed hubs
Bring your research investment into the next board discussion.
Connect funded projects, publications and measured outcomes in a managed hub your board and producers can explore.
- Trace investment to research
- Keep results tied to sources
- Prepare stakeholder updates
Start with your goals.
Discuss your mission, audience and current workflow. We’ll explore how a managed hub could support them.
Ongoing curation, reporting and custom capabilities are part of a paid hub partnership, with scope and fees agreed before work begins.
Research priorities
Topics in the 5-record visible sample
Topics can overlap. Counts describe the available collection, not spending or achieved benefits.
Five questions for the board
Start with the decision your team needs to make.
1What did the investment make possible?
Prove the value of producer investments. Trace reported funding, projects and measured results. Keep economic returns separate from research activity.
Attributable producer benefits and independent evaluation are needed to establish return on investment.
2Where should the next research dollar go?
Allocate limited research funding. Compare the portfolio across priorities, time horizons and project stages.
Budgets, costs, competing proposals and board priorities are needed before recommending an allocation.
3Who is working on the question?
Coordinate research and identify gaps. Find investigators, named funders and existing research. Similar titles alone do not establish duplication.
A shared active-project inventory is needed to distinguish a real gap from work not yet published.
4Does the finding apply in this place?
Make research useful on local farms. Connect published findings to actual study locations, soil, weather, methods and management.
Local applicability needs comparable conditions and advisor or extension review; a nearby point is not a recommendation.
5Which research could help with the next risk?
Navigate market and weather uncertainty. Inspect evidence about input efficiency, alternative uses and adaptation options.
Research evidence can inform these questions. It does not establish market demand, predict prices or prevent weather losses.
