Winter Wheat

Variety Descriptions

  • Broadview and CDC Falcon are hard red kernel types.
  • AAC Elevate PBR 91 has resistance to wheat curl mite, the vector that transmits wheat streak mosaic virus. To preserve the effectiveness of the tolerance gene, agronomic practices eliminating the ‘green bridge’ of plant material that serves as a reservoir for mites should be followed whenever possible.

1 Maturity ratings: E = Early, M = Medium and L = Late. Varieties plus 2 to 4 days compared to CDC Falcon would be Medium (M) maturing. Varieties greater than 4 days compared to CDC Falcon would be rated as Late (L) maturing. 2 All registered varieties have adequate winter hardiness if seeded at the optimum date into standing stubble where good snow cover can be assured. 3 FHB infection is highly influenced by genetics, environment and heading date. Under high levels of disease pressure, all varieties will experience yield and/or quality loss.
