Marketing
Buckwheat is almost always grown under contract with seed of the preferred variety furnished by the contracting company. Buckwheat must be marketed the year it is produced, so most buckwheat is sold under contract. Not all local grain elevators handle buckwheat. Inquiries should be made as to possible contracts and market outlets before beginning a production program.
Buckwheat is sold by the hundredweight. The North Dakota State Seed Department has established market grading factors for buckwheat. Contact that office for grading standards information.
