    Hybrid Wheats

    We have some very light land which usually burns up about this time of year due to lack of moisture. I understand that Hybrid Wheats are supposed to be better in more marginal conditions such as lighter soils or a drier season. Does anyone have experience with them and want to share their thoughts?
