This trial evaluates the varieties with a fungicide programme to determine the yield response of the varieties to controlling foliar leaf diseases against a control of no fungicide.
The two highest yielding varieties in the trial were the feed barleys Capstan and Yarra, but only Capstan gave a statistically significant yield advantage over the top six varieties.
