Variety Snapshot Mid-quick dual purpose winter variety 2-3 days quicker than Illabo to heading APH quality classification Good YLS resistance, improved test weight and yield over Illabo Carries major acid tolerance gene Fact sheet to come

Variety snapshot The new yield benchmark for main season sowing across southern NSW A clear Scepter replacement, with a significant yield advantage The next yield jump on from Scepter Mid season maturity, similar to Scepter Agronomically very similar to Scepter AH quality classification

Variety snapshot An excellent replacement for popular variety Beckom Wheat Derived from Beckom AH quality classification in southern NSW Improved yield and grain size compared to Beckom Improved stripe rust resistance compared to Beckom Similar maturity, plant height and canopy to Beckom Carries the major aluminium tolerance gene, which contributes to acid soil tolerance Very widely adapted, suited to most of southern NSW

'Scepter' type Clearfield variety with increased yields over Scepter Similar disease resistance profile as Scepter Similar grain size and test weight as Scepter Mid-season maturity, similar to Scepter Good sprouting tolerance, similar to Scepter APW quality classification Tolerant to Clearfield Intervix herbicide

Replacement for EGA Gregory, Coolah and LRPB Flanker Very high yielding in the early planting window APH quality classification Good resistance to major diseases Mid-slow maturity, suited to late April/early May plantings Good yellow leaf spot resistance Good physical grain quality characteristics Shorter plant type than other 'EGA Gregory' type varieties

An ideal replacement for LRPB Lancer Very high yielding, with excellent yield stability Suits late April/early May plantings Excellent rust resistance Medium-short plant type with better straw strength than LRPB Lancer Longer coleoptile than LRPB Lancer and other early season varieties APH quality classification for the Northern Zone

The World's first CoAXium barley Tolerant to Aggressor (Group 1) herbicide Derived from popular variety Compass The highest yielding herbicide tolerant barley available Mid season maturity, slightly later than Compass, similar to RGT Planet Wide adaptation but particularly suited to low-medium rainfall or Mallee type environments Agronomically very similar to Compass

The variety, named Boree, has been developed by Australian Grain Technologies (AGT) at its Wagga Wagga plant breeding facility. AGT wheat breeder Russell Eastwood says the combination of high yields and ability to achieve the highest quality grade sets Boree up as a lucrative option for southern NSW growers. Elite yielding APH quality variety for main season sowing Mid season maturity, similar to Beckom and Scepter Broadly adapted, suits a range of soil types and environments

The highest yielding barley variety available Quick-mid maturity, slightly slower than Spartacus CL Wide adaptation to a range of environments and seasonal conditions Erect growing Hindmarsh plant type Less susceptible to lodging than taller varieties such as Compass Competitive physical grain quality package Has entered the Barley Australia malt accreditation program but is currently deliverable as Barley/Feed

A lower risk alternative to RGT Planet~ with similar top-end yield potential Best suited to medium-high rainfall environments Mid-slow maturity, slightly slower than RGT Planet Broader adaptation than RGT Planet, delivering more stable yields across a wider range of environmental conditions Improved test weight compared with RGT Planet Has entered the Barley Australia malt accreditation program but is currently deliverable as Barley/Feed
