Book excerpt: Excerpt from Distribution of the Varieties and Classes of Wheat in the United States in 1934 In the older Wheat-growing regions of the United States some of the varieties now grown have been in cultivation for more than a hundred years. In the newer regions and in recent years, varieties have changed rapidly because of the development and distribution of improved varieties by State and Federal agricultural experiment sta tions and by private breeders. Varietal surveys furnish a record of the shifting of varieties. In addition to furnishing a history of varietal distribution, the survey forms a basis for wheat improvement. For these reasons a wheat varietal survey has been made, at 5-year inter vals, by the United States Department of Agriculture.
