Kansas Wheat

Kansas Wheat is a cooperative agreement based in Manhattan, Kansas, uniting the Kansas Wheat Commission and the Kansas Association of Wheat Growers. This organization is comprised of 16 employees and generates an annual revenue of $2.5 million. Kansas Wheat works to advance the profitability of wheat production through various initiatives. The Kansas Wheat Commission, a grower-funded and governed advocacy organization, focuses on securing the future of Kansas wheat internationally through market development, research, and improved wheat varieties. The Kansas Association of Wheat Growers, a member-governed organization, represents wheat growers by engaging in legislative planning, advising governments and international agencies on matters related to wheat, and providing grassroots leadership within the U.S. wheat industry. The cooperative operates through a voluntary two-cent assessment on each bushel of wheat produced in Kansas, funding the Kansas Wheat Commission's efforts.
