Aims

To generate independent information for growers about newly released barley crop varieties.

Key messages
  • Flagship and Buloke are new malting variety alternatives to Schooner and the Sloop varieties and segregation options for these varieties will increase during 2008. Flagship has the advantage of CCN resistance and more developed markets, whilst Buloke has the advantage of higher yields.
  • Hindmarsh, Fleet and Keel are the highest yielding feed varieties. Choice between these varieties will be based on the relative importance of test weight (Hindmarsh superior), resistance to the spot form of net blotch (Keel and Fleet superior), resistance to leaf rust (Hindmarsh and Fleet superior), and tolerance to deep sands (Fleet and Hindmarsh superior).
