KWS Zyatt x KWS Trinity

 

A good choice to grow alongside KWS Extase
Short, stiff and good all-round disease resistance

Variety Positioning

  • Looks like a good partner to grow alongside KWS Extase with similar high yields (98% treated, 92% untreated).

  • Accepted by the millers as a Group 2-type but not approved for ukp export.

  • Grain quality is good with Hagberg Falling Number 305, a slightly lower specific weight (77.6 kg/hl AHDB) and a protein content of 12.2%. 

  • Suitable for all regions including areas of high sterility risk. Performs well across soil types and is an acceptable choice as a second wheat.

  • It can be drilled slightly earlier than KWS Extase but best grown from the last week of September.

  • Medium length straw, decently stiff straw treated (7.7) (8) and untreated (7). Relatively early maturity (-1) (-1) and has good resistance to sprouting.

  • A clean variety with a very good disease package with mildew (7.5), yellow rust (8.8) (8.3), brown rust (5.2) (4.1) and Septoria tritici (7.3) (6.7).Moderately susceptible to fusarium ear blight (5.5).

  • Not resistant to orange wheat blossom midge.
