Hello readers. I’m hoping someone out there remembers the words to a poem about grain grading. I recall it recited by a long-time grain inspector once.

The poem features a farmer discussing the grade of the wheat being delivered to an elevator with either an inspector or an elevator operator. We are hoping to include this poem in a publication planned to celebrate grain handling, shipping and inspection.

Please contact me at [email protected] if you can be of help.

Thank you.
