Wheat variety trial - Millicent locations
Aims

To report on wheat variety trials.

Key messages
  • These trials are carried out each year to assess the range of wheat varieties at several sites across the South-East.
  • Data from NVT (National Variety Trials) contains long-term site results. This data should be utilised to reduce the effect of seasonal variability in the decision-making process.
