Wheat Grading

Wheat grading in the Riverina NSW consists of separating the large seeds from smaller ones, as well as separating out weed seeds, other crop seeds, damaged seeds, straw, and dust.


A seed dressing with nutrients and root growth stimulants is added to the largest wheat seeds used for sowing the next crop.
