Inys

✚ Very high output 6-row hybrid barley

✚ Good all round agronomy and disease resistance

Variety Positioning

• Inys has become the successor to Belfry with significantly higher yields, a similarly good disease profile and lodging resistance.  

• It has given high yields in Agrii trials over the past three years (105% treated, 82% untreated) and sits at near the top of the UK Recommended List for six-row varieties (107% treated, 86% untreated).  

• It has an average specific weight (69.6 kg/hl) and relatively low screening losses. It is the first hybrid to be marketed by KWS.

• Consistent performance across light (108%) and heavy soils (108%) with its most consistent performance in the East and North.

• Very competitive against grassweeds. Tall straw (113 cm untreated, 106 cm treated).

• Stem stiffness is good (7 treated, 8 untreated) with lower lodging risk and moderately resistant to brackling.

• Medium-early maturity (-1).

• Good disease resistance against mildew (RL 7; Agrii 6), Rhynchosporium (RL 6; Agrii 7) and slightly weaker on net blotch (RL 5; Agrii 5) and brown rust (RL 6; Agrii 5).

• Resistant to barley mild mosaic virus and yellow mosaic virus (strain 1).
