Very high yield potential in MB and under irrigation
Very strong standing, short semi-dwarf
Early maturity
Outstanding Yield Potential Under Adequate Moisture
An outstanding performer across Western Canada, SY Manness is a new, short, semi-dwarf CWRS with outstanding yield potential, it was the highest yielding CWRS in the 2020 Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation Team (MCVET) trials. It’s a very strong-standing variety (equal to AAC Viewfield) and matures up to two days earlier than AAC Viewfield. SY Manness is resistant to leaf and stem rusts and offers improved protein (similar to Carberry).
