Michigan Wheat | Lansing MI is the go-to brand for all things related to wheat in the state of Michigan. Established in July 2011, the Michigan Wheat Program (MWP) is a successful wheat check-off program approved by the state's wheat farmers. With over 8,000 wheat farmers residing in more than 50 counties and planting over 500,000 acres annually, the MWP plays a crucial role in advancing the industry.

During this approval period, each bushel of red and white winter wheat, as well as seed wheat, is assessed to generate funds for research, production, education, market development, and promotion of Michigan wheat. With a crop that yields about 40 million bushels and generates over $200 million in cash farm receipts, the MWP is dedicated to supporting wheat farmers and boosting the wheat industry in Michigan. The program is periodically evaluated through a vote every five years, ensuring accountability and progress.
