I think anyone who has the chance is moving away from osr as quickly as possible.

Hybrids were all the rage, but the crop is returning to the use of higher rates of conventional seed "from the heap".

For some time now the breeders have threatened to stop producing conventional varieties and only supply hybrids, however it seems to be a long drawn-out process (thankfully). However, as Tesla says, there won't be much of a market for any variety soon.

Hybrid breeding also requires a steady stream of conventional varieties too. But osr is in danger of becoming a niche crop I think.
