21. New Varieties Bass Baudin replacement with greater disease resistance MS powdery and R to leaf rust Similar malting quality and plumper grain A few days earlier than Baudin Limited release 2012 Pending stage 2 accreditation 2012 Henley Widely grown in Europe Slight improvement on yields of Baudin across WA Durable resistance to powdery mildew Limited seed available

22. New Varieties Scope Very similar to Buloke with added “bonus” Applied for registration for use with Clearfield Available now Malting accreditation 2013 Navigator Niche variety for the domestic market Limited release 2012

23. 2012 will be a high risk year for powdery mildew 2 new varieties awaiting accreditation in 2012 Bass and Navigator Scope a future option to integrate Feed vs. Malting?? Conclusion
