Aims

To investigate the possible yield and quality differences between various milling quality wheats of differening maturities in the Hamilton District.

Key messages
  • The results must be treated with caution as the late break, extremely wet September/October period and then extremely dry finish to the season did not suite any of the wheat varieties with very little significant differences occurring between the yields of different varieties.
  • For further conclusions, please see the attached trial report.
