Texoma, Central and Wheat State Districts' Joint Spring Meeting

 

More than 75 milling industry professionals met March 4-5 in San Antonio, Texas, at the joint Texoma, Central and Wheat State Districts' meeting.

The opening reception and banquet kicked off on March 4, following a day of golf with nine teams.

The second day featured technical presentations on a wide range of topics including protein quality from a bakery's viewpoint; plant automation/controls; magnetic separation; improvements in HRW wheat varieties; energy monitoring and management; Swiss Milling School experience; filtration silencing solutions; and corrugation basics.

The three districts plan to join together again for their spring 2011 meeting in March, at Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas.
