Wheat <strong>variety</strong> <strong>sowing</strong> <strong>guide</strong> <strong>2012</strong><br />
By Rob Wheeler, Senior Scientist,<br />
New Variety Agronomy Group, SARDI<br />
This <strong>sowing</strong> <strong>guide</strong> provides data<br />
and guidance on bread wheat and<br />
durum wheat varieties for <strong>sowing</strong><br />
in South Australia in <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Since publication of the 2011 <strong>sowing</strong><br />
<strong>guide</strong>, three varieties, Estoc, Kord CL<br />
Plus and Justica CL Plus have been<br />
commercialised for specific application<br />
in SA.<br />
In previous years these may not have<br />
been listed, pending evaluation over<br />
many seasons, but since these have<br />
disease resistances,<br />
yield and quality<br />
combinations,<br />
important for the<br />
sustainability of SA<br />
wheat production,<br />
it has been decided<br />
they should be listed<br />
with comments<br />
to assist decision<br />
making.<br />
As with all new<br />
Rob Wheeler<br />
varieties, extensive state-wide evaluation<br />
within SARDI and National Variety Trials<br />
(NVT) over many seasons will provide<br />
more confidence in their suitability and<br />
any specific adaptational requirements.<br />
Further yield evaluation is needed for<br />
Kord CL Plus and Justica CLPlus, as each<br />
have currently only been evaluated for<br />
one year (2010) within National Variety<br />
Trials (NVT)<br />
Meanwhile further data from NVT<br />
has been gathered to support the new<br />
varieties AGT Katana, Mace and Scout<br />
as suitable to be grown in SA, and hence<br />
yield and other data for these is now<br />
included within these <strong>sowing</strong> <strong>guide</strong>s.<br />
Annuello, Young, AGT Scythe, Yenda<br />
and GBA Ruby have been removed<br />
from the <strong>2012</strong> <strong>sowing</strong> <strong>guide</strong> owing to<br />
their low and waning production, and<br />
because their agronomic characteristics<br />
are outclassed when compared with more<br />
recently released varieties.<br />
Varieties have been listed according<br />
Variety and current<br />
max. grade<br />
HARD<br />
Suitability and significant features<br />
AGT Katana Low to medium rainfall districts with potential premium returns under contract to Grain<br />
Pool<br />
Axe Low to medium rainfall districts, particularly areas with sharp dry finish, potential pre<br />
harvest sprouting risk<br />
Bolac High rainfall districts especially south east region and Kangaroo Island<br />
Catalina Medium to high rainfall districts<br />
Chara Medium to high rainfall districts especially south east region but below minimum<br />
standards for stripe rust resistance<br />
Correll All districts, avoid low test weight situations and wheat stubbles due to yellow leaf spot<br />
susceptibility<br />
Derrimut Medium to high rainfall districts but below minimum standards for stripe rust resistance<br />
Gladius All districts but avoid areas with potential pre harvest sprouting risk<br />
Clearfield JNZ Medium to high rainfall districts, imidazolinone tolerant but below minimum standards<br />
for stripe rust resistance<br />
Lincoln All districts but marginal grain size and potential pre harvest sprouting risk<br />
Mace All districts but well below minimum standards for stripe rust resistance, wheat on<br />
wheat option<br />
Peake Medium to high rainfall districts and marginal grain size<br />
Yitpi<br />
APW<br />
All districts, avoid wheat stubbles due to yellow leaf spot susceptibility and note well<br />
below minimum standards for stem rust resistance<br />
Espada All districts but avoid areas with a potential pre harvest sprouting risk<br />
Estoc All districts but note Pratylenchus neglectus susceptibility<br />
Frame All districts, but avoid <strong>sowing</strong> into wheat stubbles due to yellow leaf spot susceptibility<br />
Guardian Medium to high rainfall districts but below minimum standards for stripe rust resistance<br />
and marginal grain size<br />
Kord CL Plus All districts, imidazolinone tolerant but avoid areas with potential pre harvest sprouting risk<br />
Justica CL Plus All districts, imidazolinone tolerant but below minimum standards for leaf rust resistance<br />
Pugsley Medium to high rainfall districts but below minimum standards for stripe rust resistance<br />
Scout All districts, avoid wheat stubbles due to yellow leaf spot susceptibility and note below<br />
minimum standards for stripe rust resistance<br />
Wyalkatchem<br />
SOFT<br />
All districts but below minimum standards for stripe rust resistance and now also more<br />
susceptible to leaf rust<br />
Anlace Soft wheat producing districts, noting that seed must be treated for bunt control<br />
Barham Soft wheat producing districts and Bowie replacement but below minimum standards for<br />
stripe rust resistance<br />
Bowie<br />
DURUM<br />
Soft wheat producing districts but below minimum standards for stripe rust resistance<br />
Caparoi All durum districts<br />
Kalka All durum districts including boron toxic soils<br />
Hyperno All durum districts<br />
Saintly All durum districts and potential for hay production<br />
Tamaroi All durum districts although generally outclassed<br />
Tjilkuri All durum districts<br />
