Aims

To compare a number of commercially available varieties representing the different herbicide systems.

Key messages
  • Comparing the herbicide systems, TT varieties had the lowest average yield of 2.07 t/ha and conventional varieties yeilded teh highest at an average of 2.69 t/ha.
  • The highest yielding variety was Hyola 76 with 2.79 t/ha; the loest yielding variety was Argyll TT with 1.67 t/ha.
  • Overall oil levels were well below normal with only the clearfield varieties having an average of 40.5%.
  • The hybrid varieties demonstrated much greater early vigour compared to the OP varieties.
