Flax
A signature prairie crop, prized for oil and fiber and the blue bloom that runs across the field in summer.
Crops we grow
Seven crops, one careful rotation.
At Sletten Farms, we grow a diverse mix of crops suited to the soils and climate of west-central North Dakota. Our rotation includes flax, wheat, peas, winter wheat, corn, canola, and soybeans. Each crop is chosen to support soil health, manage risk, and produce dependable results year after year.
Wheat
Hard red spring wheat — the backbone of our rotation and a staple of the northern plains.
Peas
Field peas add nitrogen back to the soil and round out a thoughtful rotation.
Winter Wheat
Planted in the fall, dormant through winter, and first to green up in spring.
Corn
A high-yield staple managed with modern hybrids and careful agronomy.
Canola
Bright yellow blooms in early summer that produce one of our most reliable oilseed crops.
Soybeans
A versatile legume that strengthens soil health and adds resilience to the rotation.
