High yield potential
Strong standability
Good disease resistance
NEW 2028 - Setting a new standard for feed barley yield performance
An exciting new addition to our barley lineup, driven primarily by its outstanding yield performance particularly in Alberta & Saskatchewan. Top-yielding feed barley in two years of testing. This 2-row, hulled feed variety offers a strong agronomic package, with good resistance to smuts & good standability. Adding a combination of yield potential and agronomic strength, contributing to the growing demand in the feed barley market.
- High grain yield (> CDC Austenson).
- Good lodging resistance (= CDC Austenson).
- High kernel weight and plumpness (> CDC Austenson), low thins (<CDC Austenson).
- Moderate resistant to loose smut, surface smuts and stem rust.
