Aims
To evaluate a range of milling wheats of different maturities, disease resistance and qualities under broad acre farmer sown plots.
Key messages
These results must be treated with caution, as one years results can be fairly misleading. When choosing varieties other factors (such as quality) must be taken into account besides yield. Disease resistance is critical and you should always aim to grow a variety with the best resistance you can possibly get for the type of diseases you could reasonably expect to get.
For further information about varieties please see the attached trial report.
