The Milling of wheat is more than just an operation in food manufacturing, at its core it is a consistent
partnership of science, environment, systems, and people. Siemer Milling and
our industry peers are depended upon every year, all year to provide a
consistent, quality, nutritious products that ultimately end up feeding our
communities through food and feed. The raw material is not grown in a
controlled environment, quite the opposite when you calculate all the factors
and variables to go into creating a milling quality food grain. The research
and development USWBSI that is consistently funded have benefited our industry
greatly, along with helping us develop our own systems to mitigate the risks
and costs associated with fusarium head blight and vomitoxin. I’ll discuss Siemer
Milling’s history and industry presence. I’ll provide perspective on Siemer
Milling’s current strategies used to provide a consistent market for growers,
wheat supply for our milling operations, and deliver consistency that our customers
and consumers expect from wheat-based flours and co-products.
