• Suitable for all regions including areas of high sterility risk. It is adaptable across heavy and light soils and suitable for drilling from mid-September through to the end of October.

• It has performed well in the second wheat slot but has relatively low competitiveness against grassweeds.

• Moderate height (87 cm) and average strength straw both treated (RL 7; Agrii 6) and untreated (RL 8; Agrii 5), and medium-late maturity (+2).

• It has a lower HFN and higher sprouting risk (5).

• A reasonable set of disease scores for mildew (RL 6; Agrii 5) and Septoria tritici (RL 7; Agrii 7) and fusarium ear blight (5) but weaker against brown rust (RL 6; Agrii 5) and yellow rust (RL 5; Agrii 4).
