Production Value PLUS System
New methodology = Production Value PLUS System Produces “Production Values” (PVs) in t/ha for all varieties for each environment (NVT year & site combination) Basic definitions: Variety PVs: are positive or negative differences relative to a base-line (PV = 0) PV = 0 Reflects the average expected yield of all the varieties in the current NVT data set, if grown in that particular environment

Everything Zen Agronomically similar to Calingiri Improved Yield
Improved grain quality Improved YLS: MR-MS vs. MSS Supreme?

Clearfield Wheat

Scepter 1 year of data only 2 days later flowering than Mace
Otherwise very similar to Mace Watch this space 1:1

Cobalt and Tenfour: Feed for thought
15
Compliment your Mace. There are now a range of varieties that are yield competitive Hydra is a mid season option in environments of over 2 t/ha Scepter is one to watch, for a Mace replacement Zen has improved yield over Calingiri Several longer season varieties available Choose varieties based on individual farming system, environment and several years of data
