Co-chair of the U.S. Wheat and Barley Scab Initiative.
The Minnesota Wheat Council thanks Art for his many years of dedicated service to the Council and the wheat
industry.
Tim Sedlacek, Warren, MN, was recently was elected to the Minnesota Wheat Research and
Promotion Council, located in Red Lake Falls, MN. Sedlacek grows wheat, soybean and sugarbeets in Marshall County and looks forward to serving on the Council.“I think that in order to keep wheat profitable in
Minnesota as producers, we need to invest in research to make sure that wheat is competitive with other crops. I am happy to serve the wheat industry and help direct the Council’s check-off dollars appropriately,”says Sedlacek.
Sedlacek has a three-year term and represents District 1. He fills the open position vacated by Brandli.
