24 feed/biscuit <strong>wheat</strong> cultivar descriptions<br />
SAVANNAH YEAR 13<br />
Below average yielding feed <strong>wheat</strong> except<br />
for at Methven and Balfour where yields<br />
were above average. Susceptible to most<br />
diseases apart from powdery mildew. A late<br />
maturing feed <strong>wheat</strong> with moderate straw<br />
strength and low to moderate sprouting<br />
potential.<br />
SY EPSON (NFC10739) YEAR 1<br />
A biscuit <strong>wheat</strong> which in its first year of<br />
CPT2 yielded above average on irrigated<br />
sites. SY Epson out yielded Claire by 3% in<br />
its last year of CPT1. Mostly susceptible to<br />
stripe rust with moderate resistance to leaf<br />
rust and septoria leaf blotch. SY Epson has<br />
a stiff straw but can be prone to sprouting.<br />
