The reason I bring this up is because the Father of Triticale, Dr. Leonard Shebeski, Dean” of * Agriculture at the University of Manitoba, is retiring. He ~is the one who created something” brand new on Mother Earth — a miracle grain that is bound to have a - major role in feeding the world's hungry. - Triticale isn’t a hybrid or improved variety: of some old grain that’s been around forever. It’s a new species of “Iife created in a laboratory — the test tube baby of the plant world. - Technically, it’s a cross tween wheat ‘and rye. oatmeal And, while consumers are just being introduced to triticale, western Canadian scientists have been working on this new species of grain for about 20 years.
