Aims

To examine the suitability of elite commercial and unreleased spring cultivars for hyper yielding regions

Key messages

ï‚· The screen trials were conducted to identify new commercial cultivars with suitability for high yielding environments.
ï‚· 45Y93 CL was the highest yielding cultivar in the CLF trial but there were no statistical differences in yield in the RR/Truflex and TT trials.
ï‚· Trial mean yield was 3.82, 3.75 and 3.35t/ha in the CLF, RR/Truflex and TT trials respectively.
ï‚· Significant difference in oil content between the varieties in the CLF, RR/Truflex and TT groups.
