EMPRESS (CRWT157) YEAR 3<br />

Above average yielding biscuit <strong>wheat</strong> in<br />

the South Island, but below average in the<br />

southern North Island. Empress has good<br />

resistance against foliar diseases. It is of<br />

medium height with stiff straw strength.<br />

EXCEDE YEAR 7<br />

Average yielding European feed cultivar at<br />

dryland trial sites in Canterbury. Excede is<br />

mostly susceptible to septoria leaf blotch<br />

but has moderate disease resistance<br />

against most other foliar diseases. Has<br />

good straw strength and low sprouting risk.<br />
