Summary

The successful production of hard wheat with acceptable protein is based, in part, on an effective nitrogen (N) management plan. This fact sheet discusses the principles of managing N for hard wheat production and explains how to calculate an N application rate. The information contained in this fact sheet is applicable to both irrigated and dryland production systems in eastern Oregon.
