[QUOTE="T Hectares, post: 1541686, member: 2522"] I had 68 ha of it as a second wheat this year. Any bg competiveness was negated by it losing lots of tillers in the dry spring, it bounced back and grew well later developing some very long ears with several extra grain sites and despite its height, stood well and cut very nicely, 82 kg/ha nice sample Disease wise it didn't display anything alarming although have heard some concerns regarding Fusarium but not seen any myself. Cut it last week and compared to our other second wheats on the same soil type it's lagged 0.5 t/ha behind the Gallant, 0.8 t/ha behind Belepi and 1.4 t/ha lower than Skyfall. I won't grow it next year as its too late for me for subsequent OSR establishment, and I'm stopping growing for Warburtons as we constantly struggle for proteins due to foliar N not being allowed, we've just scrapped in at 12.6 % this year ( min 12.5 on Warburtons contract ) It will be replaced by Skyfall. tbh I was more impressed by the Belepi this year and it has the wider drilling window [/QUOTE]
