Vomitoxin has them dumping wheat as they can't sell it.

Any changes I need to make in burning wheat? Also, can I mix it with corn and be OK?
Have neighbors here in North Dakota farm country dumping tens of thousands of bushels because of this. In addition wheat and corn prices are down a lot from the past few boom years. Not a good year for the farmers but with low prices to free wheat for burning this winter will be one of less expensive heating.
