    What are the benefits of growing triticale?

    Arable novice here. What are the benefits of growing triticale in an arable rotation? Is it a breakcrop with wheat? How cheap is it to grow, and what yield would you expect from land that would normally do 3.5 tonne per acre wheat? Presumably combined, and the straw is of use too? Many thanks
