Variety Positioning
-
Introduced to the Agrii portfolio last year as the successor to Vegas with similar high yields in trials (104% treated, 93% untreated) but offers the additional benefit of TuYV resistance which has become an important trait to many growers.
-
The European-wide breeder, NPZ, has come to the fore in recent years with improved disease traits and improved late-season stem health.
-
Suitable for all soils with its best performance is in the East and West regions of the UK.
-
It has shown good autumn (8) and spring vigour (7) in Agrii trials over the past four years and the ability to withstand CSFB larval attack.
-
Relatively tall (160 cm), stiff canopy (8) and good lodging resistance (RL 8; Agrii 9). It had medium maturity (RL 5; Agrii 4).
-
Disease resistance includes a good light leaf spot rating (RL 6; Agrii 7), RLMS phoma/stem canker resistance (RL 9).
-
It appears tolerant of Verticillium stem stripe in both AHDB and Agrii trials but does not carry the pod-shatter resistance trait that is liked by some growers.
