Variety Positioning
-
Agrii’s preferred hybrid barley variety for heavy land due to its sensible height and stiff straw, while only being a couple of percent behind the leading varieties in terms of yield.
-
Consistently high yields over the past three years in Agrii trials (102% treated, 82% untreated) and a reasonable specific weight (69.7 kg/hl).
-
It performs consistently well across all regions and soil types. High-tillering capacity with a semi-prostrate growth habit, it is very competitive against blackgrass.
-
Drill from 20th September through to the end of October and, like the other hybrids, it is best used to maintain already low weed populations.
-
It is the shortest (113 cm treated, 104 cm untreated) and stiffest (8) (7) of any of the hybrids. Medium maturity.
-
Good all-round disease resistance against mildew (6) (6), brown rust (6) (5), Rhynchosporium (7) (7) and net blotch (5) (5).
-
Resistant to barley yellow mosaic virus.
