Autumn sown barley variety trial locations
Aims

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. 

Key messages

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.
