Talking Wheat With Mark Hodges of the Oklahoma Wheat Commission

Sun, 30 Nov 2008 21:08:22 CST

Talking Wheat With Mark Hodges of the Oklahoma Wheat Commission Talking Wheat wtih Mark Hodges. We had the chance to sit down and visit at length with the outgoing Executive Director of the Oklahoma Wheat Commission, mark Hodges. At the November Board of Directors' Meeting of the Oklahoma Wheat Commission, Hodges announced his intentions to end his more than a decade of service to the OWC as the top hired hand of the Commission. He plans to end that tenure around the first of the year.

We talked with Mark about a variety of wheat industry issues. including the current condition of the crop in the southern plains, his plan to retire from the OWC and a good bit of time talking about the differences in how we market wheat today versus fifteen years ago as Mark was getting started as the Executive Director of the wheat promotion group.

You can hear our more than fifteen minutes of conversation of where we stand in the wheat business in the southern plains as perceived by Mark Hodges- well worth your time to take a listen to.
