Variety Positioning

From their French Momont programme, this group 2 variety clearly has a different parental background, which currently scores a very strong tritici resistance, yellow rust and brown rust, with subsequently very high untreated yields – now that is a strong package!
Grain quality scores good with HFN 297, specific weight 78.4, but with lower protein 12.6, however with provisional ukp it will be very marketable.
With relatively stiff straw untreated and early to mature.
KWS Extase appears to be well adapted across soil types but particularly useful (limited data) on light soils. In addition, there is every indication that it performs fine as a second wheat.
However, it is a fast developing variety that is best drilled from last week September onwards through to the end of January. It is not suitable for early drilling.
Not resistant to orange wheat blossom midge.
A very nice variety which will take a significant share of the market going forward….
