Assurance and Improvement of the Milling, Baking, and Nutritional Quality of Idaho Wheat
Investigates the end-use quality of wheat varieties with the mission of providing Idaho wheat growers the following: accurate quality analyses of potential, new and established varieties, evaluations of the quality of advanced lines & established varieties grown in diverse environments and with variable management; quality analyses for wheat resaearchers to ensure that all wheats available are of marketable quality; new procedures for measuring wheat quality; and, information on high and specific quality characteristics desired by the flour industry.

Nebraska Wheat Quality Lab
Assists both wheat producers and consumers by developing wheat varieties with quality characteristics that are desired by the wheat processing industry.
Founded in 1959, the Lab works with wheat breeders, geneticists, and plant pathologists from the University of Nebraska and USDA-ARS to develop improved wheat varieties for farmers.
The Lab uses predictive tests to estimate the end-use quality properties of wheat lines. These tests include milling, protein quality, bread baking, and noodle processing. |

USDA ARS Engineering Research Unit
Researches current problems associated with post-harvest grain conditioning, handling, storage & quality assessments that affect the safety of our food & feed chain. Laboratory, pilot & full scale grain equipment & storage facilities are used to develop new technologies for facility management, maintenance of grain quality, objective assessment of grain quality & reducing grain losses in market channels. The research addresses problems in grain storage, grain flow, grain dust control, wheat hardness testing, wheat milling, dough mixing & digital image analysis for grain inspection. |
