Aims
  • To compare a number of varieties that are either commercially available or close to commercial release that may be suitable for either malting or feed markets in southern Victoria.
  • To evaluate the varieties with a fungicide programme; to determine the yield response of the varieties when controlling leaf diseases against a control, or no foliar fungicide applied.
