wheat and counting.
Thanks to Hoffman,
it's been a record harvest in central Pennsylvania.
Hoffman 95 Brand wheat is making quite a name for itself in central Pennsylvania.
Planting this adaptable, hardy variety, many farmers here harvested record wheat yields
this sumrper—with documented production levels of over 100 bushels per acre and top test
weights of more than 60 lbs. per bushel.
As central Pennsylvania farmers have discovered, its excellent standability makes Hoffman 95
Brand wheat easy to combine. It also provides strong disease resistance for maximum yield*
and grain quality.
Already a top-seller for Hoffman Seeds, Hoffman 95 Brand wheat is sure to tip the scales
next season, too. Ask your Hoffman Seeds' dealer about the yield potential
of Hoffman wheat varieties for your farm. Or call us at 800/776-7929 or
visit our web site at www.hoffmanseeds.com.
After all, records were made to be broken,

Tracklot buying activity was irregular,
but most buyers were cautious and made
purchases accordingly. Offerings were
more than adequate for the current light
trade interest. Movement through both
retail and distributive channels remained
spotty with interest usually centering
around other than food items. The market
tone remained weak and unsettled.
