Wheat People: The Wheat Game


Here are your results:

1997 was a mild winter, but a late freeze in April reduced your yields.

Jagger was an excellent choice. Leaf rust was a problem because of the mild weather, but Jagger is resistant to the disease.

Herbicide was a bad decision because weeds weren't a problem after all. It cost you about $10 per acre.

You harvested 45 bushels per acre, very close to the state average of 46. Your profits are down, however, because you didn't need to apply the herbicide.

Try again to see how your results change with different choices.
