Abstract
  • The purpose of this publication is to stimulate discussions which will help Oregon's wheat indus­try, at both the individual producer and industry organization level, to arrive at decisions regarding future courses of direction. It grew out of concerns of the School of Agriculture, Oregon State Univer­sity, and industry leaders regarding the present and longer-run alternatives facing wheat produc­ers. At the same time it was apparent that an an­alysis of factors affecting wheat alone would be inadequate, since some of the potential alterna­tives are outside the wheat economy, and others are closely interrelated with wheat. Therefore, the report was broadened to encompass the use of wheat as a feed grain in terms of expanded live­stock and poultry feeding industries. To a lesser ex­tent, attention was given to alternative crops which might replace some of the present wheat acreage, particularly in areas where irrigation developments exist or are potential. This question requires fur­ther research before definite directions can be presented; such research is beyond the scope of this report, which was based mainly on bringing together existing knowledge for analysis.
