Hi-Gene Seed

These pictures show the possible contamination levels for each grade of seed. They show the maximum impurities in 1kg of clean seed.

Hi-Gene seed is a name synonymous with seed of a high genetic potential and free from contamination.

The table above shows the potential problems that can be bought in when seed is produced to the normal

certified standards.

Our seed is grown predominantly in the western region whereas most other seed companies produce their

seed in the eastern counties where Blackgrass is a widespread problem. Why take the chance of allowing

this very problematic weed to become established on your farm?

The standards shown for Hi-Gene Seed shows that potential problems are minimised. This guarantee of

purity is backed up by reports from official seed testing stations which very frequently show our seed to

be totally free from any impurity at all. Whilst we understand well that we need to supply a quality

product we also know and accept that this product has to be offered very competitively.

The charts below show that the type of variety used varies across the

regions served by the 2 seed plants. In the Western region clearly

the feed wheat varieties take a huge share of the market for obvious

reason, with the hard feed wheats having a dominant position over the

softs. Much of this hard feed wheat can command a small premium

if the specific weights and Hagbergs are suitable for use as low grade

milling.

In the Eastern region, represented by the Woodheads figures, we

still see feed wheats dominating but the numerous local markets for

soft milling Group 3s and 4s, distilling outlets in the North, plus the

proximity to export outlets dictates that the soft varieties are much

more prominent. The recent development of the Bioethanol markets

in that area may also have encouraged some growers to prioritise the

soft varieties, though few buyers seem able to differentiate hards and

softs at the moment.

Wheat Sales by NABIM Group

Barley Sales by Sector

The charts below show that in the

Western region the winter malting

types are almost disappearing off

the map. We have seen the Hybrid

6 rows take an increasing share

recently and we watch with great

interest to see how they perform

this harvest, but traditionally the 2

row feeds have taken a huge share,

dominated by the excellent flow of

varieties from KWS such as Saffron,

Cassia, Glacier and now Tower.

We can see that in the East the

2 row feeds are not quite so

dominant with both the malting

types and Hybrids representing

a larger share. The trend towards

several local maltsters preferring

more spring malting barley rather

than winter sown malting types

may see this share of the market

change in years to come.

Introduction

We have pleasure in presenting our 2014 autumn seed catalogue which is intended for use by customers of Wynnstay Arable based in

Shrewsbury and Woodheads Seeds based in Selby. Woodhead Seeds was purchased by Wynnstay in 2010 and both businesses now operate

as strong regional players in the UK seed industry. Collectively the two companies combine to be recognised as the 3rd largest producer and

supplier of seed in the UK, a scale which ensures that we can offer customers the very best in technology and service whilst maintaining a

competitive price on farm.

Seed Production Improvements

We know how important it is to produce and deliver high quality seed to you when you need it. Some of the new higher yielding wheat varieties

have an extended grain fill period and are therefore later to mature. At the same time improved drilling techniques on farm allow for huge areas

to be drilled in shorter space of time. To be successful as a seed business we need to concentrate even more seed production into a shorter

period between what is often a later harvest and an earlier drilling period.

Significant investments have been made recently at both Shrewsbury and Selby to improve the cleaning capacity, the seed treatment

application capacity and speed of packing. Between the two plants we now have the capacity to produce 700t of quality seed per day, essential

to meet the changing demands of our customers which extend from the borders of Scotland to Cornwall, and everywhere in between.

New varieties that can significantly improve returns

At the time of writing arable crops look full of potential and hopefully we will return to barn bursting yields that have not been so widespread

for a year or two. When looking forward to what to grow in 2014 there are a number of new varieties that really do offer the potential to

significantly increase returns. This booklet will hopefully help in answering some of the questions as to what to grow with new names such as

the wheat varieties Skyfall, Evolution, Cubanita and Zulu, and the new high yielding barley KWS Tower.

This autumn presents the added challenge of growing Oilseed Rape without the use of a neonicotinoid seed treatment. Early plant establishment

will feature as a preventative towards flea beetle attack and there are some excellent new hybrid and conventional varieties to consider which

offer autumn vigour, along with high yield and high oil content.

Winter Wheat Varieties

NABIM Group 1 - Breadmaking Wheats

CRUSOE Cordiale x Gulliver Limagrain 4.4%

Crusoe was first introduced in 2013 and many will be monitoring its performance this year. It offers a slight yield improvement over the incumbent Group 1s and brings much improved disease resistance. Where Gallant and Solstice have always been considered as moderate/poor on disease, Crusoe has a rating of 9 for Yellow Rust and 6 for Septoria Tritici. Crusoe also has the advantage over the other Group 1 varieties of a higher protein content

improving the chances of hitting the full specification. It is slightly later to mature than other bread wheats.

GALLANT (Malacca x Charger) x Xi19 Syngenta 4.3%

Most UK millers are very happy to take Gallant on equivalent terms to Solstice and some favour Gallant because of its stronger gluten characteristics. When Gallant was introduced it had a clear yield advantage over Solstice but they are rated as very similar now. It is recognised as having a superior Hagberg rating demonstrating its durability in a difficult harvest. It can be grown as a 1st or 2nd wheat and importantly it has very early maturity, similar to Cordiale, helping to spread the harvest workload and also offering an entry for oilseed rape. Disease resistance is moderate, like Solstice.

Not thought to be suited to sowing before mid September.

SOLSTICE Vivant x Rialt Limagrain 2.2%

Solstice is still considered as the benchmark variety in Group 1s in the UK. Millers seem very content with Solstice’s quality though some seem to slightly favour Gallant. Grain quality is good though the 13% protein target can be challenging so an extra 50kg of N/ha is advisable at growth stage 35-37. It has long yet relatively stiff straw and a relatively poor disease profile. Considered to be unsuitable for early sowing due to poor eyespot

resistance.

SKYFALL C4148 x Hurricaine RAGT 3.6%

This variety is newly available for 2014 and will develop into a major UK wheat. Whilst Skyfall was expected to be confirmed as a NABIM Group 1 variety this year the decision has now been deferred until 2015, but most millers are still listing it within their Group 1 varieties to buy. It has the same treated yield as JB Diego, the UK’s market leading feed wheat, and offers a clear 6% more yield than the established breadmakers Solstice and Gallant. The protein content is lower than other Group 1s which will need attention, but it has a good Hagberg and specific weight and agronomically Skyfall

looks sound. It must not be sown early due to rapid speed of development. Seed is very scarce for this autumn.

NABIM Group 2 – Some Breadmaking Potential

CORDIALE (Reaper x Cadenza) x Malacca KWS 3.4%

This variety has excellent Group 2 quality and often achieves premiums close to the Group 1 varieties. With an early maturity and good performance as a 1st or 2nd wheat it has developed into a popular choice as an entrance for oilseed rape, though Gallant should also be considered in this position.

Not suited to early drilling and low/average ratings on most diseases.

CUBANITA Ketchum x Cordiale Syngenta 0.4%

This variety has the highest yield potential of all varieties in the Western region including the feed varieties so it is sure to attract interest. Coupled with this huge yield is the best specific weight on the HGCA list, higher than Group 1 varieties. It is relatively early maturing and has very stiff straw. Our advice is to think of Cubanita as a top yielder with excellent grain quality and early maturity, rather than thinking of it as a potential breadmaking variety. If it can be stored separately there may be a premium available, but that is not the main reason to grow it. Early indications suggest that

Cubanita is a useful 2nd wheat too.

PANORAMA Solstice x Xi19 Limagrain 1.4%

Panorama was first recommended in 2009 and has shown itself to be a useful all rounder. It has long yet very stiff straw and whilst it is considered to be at the lower end of Group 2 quality, it has the potential to generate a useful premium. The straw characteristics and higher protein make it a

useful option for wholecrop also.

Winter Wheat Varieties continued

NABIM Group 3 – Biscuit Wheats

ICON (Alchemy x Robigus) x Magic RAGT 0.3%

Icon is a new biscuit/distilling wheat that yields particularly well in the North and Eastern regions. Good resistance to Mildew, Yellow Rust and

Septoria Tritici is demonstrated by exceptionally high untreated yields.

INVICTA (Claire x Consort) x Robigus Limagrain 1.6%

Invicta has proved to be a little variable over the last few years. It did very well in 2011 but suffered in the last 2 seasons of trials with yields below par. It does however remain a popular variety on farm and is widely used in biscuit and cake flours. It has long but relatively stiff straw and average

disease resistance. Late maturity can be a problem.

SCOUT Z435 x Deben Senova 1.8%

Scout is a very strong candidate for the early drilling position. It is a slow developing variety, has stiff straw and good eyespot resistance, all very important for early drilling. Scout has good biscuit quality but a slightly disappointing yield rating which now looks a little outclassed for situations

other than early drilling.

ZULU (CEB 99080 x Claire) x Robigus Limagrain 2.3%

Newly available for 2014 Zulu is similar to Icon in that it has its best yields in the North and Eastern region. The variety should find particular favour in these regions with a high yield and grain quality to suit flour millers, distillers and exporters. The straw appears to respond well to growth regulators

and unlike Icon, Zulu has Blossom Midge Resistance.

NABIM Group 4 – Feed Wheats

SOFT Group 4

ALCHEMY Claire x (Consort x Woodstock) Limagrain 1.3%

Alchemy is some way behind the top yielding feed varieties now but has maintained a decent market share nationally and particularly in the Western region. The decline of Alchemy in the near future is inevitable considering the lower yield and poor Brown Rust rating, but it still holds on to a healthy

resistance to Septoria Tritici and has developed a loyal following in the West. Can be sown early but not as well suited as Scout or Grafton.

HORATIO Alchemy x Oakley Limagrain 2.5%

Horatio looks a good all-rounder with good grain quality, no major disease weaknesses, good straw strength, Blossom midge resistance and is not too

late to mature.

LEEDS Robigus x Istabraq KWS 4.5%

Leeds is one of very few high yielding feed varieties that couples top yield ratings with an excellent specific weight (77.9 kg/hl). This helps make the variety suitable for distilling and export as well as being a quality feed variety. Disease ratings are a bit of a mixed bag with possibly the best Fusarium

resistance on the list but with poor Mildew and Brown Rust ratings. Leeds seems to perform particularly well on lighter soil types.

REVELATION (Alchemy x Claire) x Shepherd Limagrain 3.5%

Revelation performs very well in the North and Eastern regions where its potential for distilling will also be useful. It has stiff straw, excellent Eyespot resistance and is relatively slow to develop so looks to be a useful wheat for the early drilling situation. It has excellent rust disease resistance (9 & 9)

and is not susceptible to any of the major diseases, but late maturity and low yields in the West will reduce its appeal for some.

VISCOUNT Robigus x Canterbury KWS 1.6%

This variety has developed a useful following in the Northern regions where it is widely used for distilling and often finds its way into biscuit

and cake grists. It should be given priority at harvest as it can be susceptible to sprouting and is therefore less favoured in the Western region.

HARD Group 4

KWS KIELDER Brompton x Oakley KWS 5.5%

Despite poor performance in 2012 Kielder is still the highest yielding wheat available for 2014. Kielder has only moderate disease resistance, being particularly weak on Mildew and Yellow Rust, a low specific weight and late maturity, but where yield is the main driver it will find a place on most

farms. It yields best in the North and is a little behind Santiago and Evolution in the West.

EVOLUTION Smuggler x (Robigus x SJ5558) Limagrain 5.8%

This variety is newly available for 2014 and will be a very useful introduction with a UK yield on a par with the very best, yet with much improved disease ratings. For those targeting top yields Evolution is safer to grow with a 9 for both Yellow Rust and Brown Rust and ratings of 6 for all other major diseases. Grain quality is no better than Kielder and maturity is rather late but with the top yield rating for 1st and 2nd wheat Evolution will be

popular. It has the highest untreated yield, demonstrating excellent disease resistance.

JB DIEGO 3351b2 x Stru 2374 Senova 12.3%

Diego has developed into the UK’s most popular wheat variety. It has achieved that status by proving to be one of the most consistent varieties that yields well over varied seasons, on light and heavy ground, and 1st or 2nd wheat and reliably producing very good grain quality. Disease resistance

ratings are acceptable rather than outstanding. It can be sown from the middle of September onwards.

GRAFTON Cordiale x W97 KWS 3.7%

Grafton is a very useful variety. Whilst it has a lowish yield potential for a feed wheat it has the shortest and stiffest straw available so suits high yield potential situations where lodging pressure may be high. Grafton is early to mature which helps spread harvest workload and offers an opportunity to establish rape afterwards. Grafton has a very slow speed of development which when coupled with the stiffest straw and ‘Rendezvous’ Pch1 eyespot resistance makes it the ideal choice for early sowing. Grafton is therefore the perfect variety to grow either side of oilseed rape in the rotation. It has

a very high hagberg and a superb specific weight the highest of any feed wheat.

RELAY Gladiator x Vector R.A.G.T 3.9%

Relay has developed into a useful feed wheat. It can be grown as a 1st wheat or a 2nd wheat, it has short, stiff straw, good disease resistance (including a 9 for Yellow Rust an 8 for Brown Rust and a 6 for Septoria Tritici) and has a good specific weight and Hagberg for a feed variety. Higher tiller numbers

than most other feed varieties which helps with ground cover and suppresses grass weeds. It is currently the UK’s 4th most popular wheat variety.

KWS SANTIAGO Sherborne x Oakley KWS 10.2%

Santiago has gained a reputation as one of the most consistent yielders and is second only to Diego in its popularity on farm. It does however, have a few issues. Disease resistance is poor to moderate, it is later to mature, it has a relatively low specific weight and a low Hagberg rating suggests it may be prone to sprouting in a wet harvest. However the huge yield potential cannot be ignored and Santiago has proved itself to be very consistent, yielding well in very different seasons, on different soil types and across all the UK regions. It yields well as a 1st or 2nd wheat and in the Western

region Santiago has equal top yield alongside Cubanita.

CONQUEROR (W89 x Robigus) x Robigus KWS 1.8%

Conqueror has a high yield potential and does have a particular advantage over most varieties when grown on lighter soils. It had an exceptional year in the dry conditions of 2011 so appears to have good ‘drought tolerance’. Like several of the recently introduced high yielding feeds it has average grain quality and poor disease resistance, particularly to Septoria Tritici and Mildew. Not a variety for early drilling though does quite well in the 2nd

wheat position.

DICKENS (Equinox x Charger) x Defender Secobra 2.7%

A useful recent introduction which offers some sort of middle ground on grain quality and yields between the top yielders like Kielder and Santiago, and better quality wheats like Diego and Relay. Dickens appears to have robust rust disease ratings but Eyespot may need attention. Straw strength is

not the best but should be manageable for most growers. Good 1st and 2nd wheat yield ratings.

BELEPI Robigus x Samoa J.Blackman 1.4%

Belepi is not on the HGCA list but offers growers a very interesting alternative for later sowing. It is a winter wheat crossed with a spring variety and has a wide sowing window from Mid October to April. It is one of the earliest varieties to mature even in the late sowing window so could be a useful

entry for oilseed rape when sown in October/ November. Yields have been recorded between Invicta and Santiago.

Malting Barley

SY VENTURE DH9525 x Retriever Syngenta 13.3%

SY Venture is a high-yielding variety with excellent malting potential and resistance to BaYMV. It has full approval from the IBD (Institute of

Brewing and Distilling) for the production of malt for brewing. Unlike most other malting types it has relatively stiff straw and it also has a

very good specific weight.

TALISMAN Flagon x Retriever Senova 2.5%

This new variety is the highest yielding malting barley available. It has provisional approval from the IDB for malt production for brewing. Like

many successful malting varieties the straw is long and only rated as a 6 for standing ability so will suit the traditional malting barley grower

rather than the ‘dual purpose’ barley grower. Very early maturity is a useful attribute.

CASSATA Opal x NSL 96-7517 Limagrain 2.1%

Cassata is the most widely grown winter malting barley as it has stiff straw, BaYMV resistance and is fully approved for brewing by the IBD.

Yield is 4% higher than Pearl but 5% behind SY Venture. Cassata has very varied range of disease resistance with a good 7 for Rhynchosporium,

but poor resistance to Mildew (4), Net Blotch (4) and Yellow Rust (2).

PEARL Puffin x Angora Limagrain 1.6%

Pearl has been the industry benchmark and performed well for growers since recommended in 1999. It has now lost market share to Cassata

and new higher yielding malting and feed varieties are likely to continue the trend. Worth making the point when introduced it was popular

with feed growers too but the highest yielding 2 row feed varieties are now up to 15% higher yielding, demonstrating the improvements

brought from plant breeding.

RETRIEVER Clara x SJ 990647 Limagrain 0.9%

Retriever is one of the highest yielding 2 row winter barley varieties. It had a disappointing year in the wet conditions in 2012 though beat

everything else in the drier summer of 2013. It has not developed into a major variety in the UK due a relatively poor specific weight for a 2

row variety and short, relatively weak straw. Retriever is early to mature and is resistant to BaYMV.

KWS CASSIA (Eden x Carat) x Saffron KWS 19.9%

KWS Cassia has set the new standard for two row winter barley yield. It has proved to be a higher yielding improved version of it’s parent

Saffron. However it does share it’s parents susceptibility to Rhynchosporium and Mildew. A bold grain with a good specific weight and longish,

very stiff straw has made Cassia our most popular variety for the past few years and we are now seeing it appear as a parent in some of the

very recent introductions.

FLORENTINE 3351b2 x Stru2374 Senova 2.2%

Florentine is a useful all-rounder. Whilst the yield is slightly behind Cassia is has very stiff straw, a comprehensive disease resistance and early

maturity. It is resistant to BaYMV.

MATROS Himalaya x (Carat x Chess) Limagrain 1.3%

Matros is ideal for those growing 2 row barley and looking to maximise the yield of grain and straw. The grain yield is the similar to the current

market favourite KWS Cassia but Matros has the longest straw of the 2 row feeds and also offers much improved resistance to Rhynchosporium

(rated 7) and Mildew (rated 7).

KWS GLACIER Cassia x Retriever KWS 21.2%

KWS Glacier is now the equal highest yielding variety with the exception of the 6 row hybrids. On heavier soil types it does particularly well

where it is number 1 with no exceptions. It has better Rhyncho resistance than Cassia and is slightly earlier to mature. The straw is shorter

than Cassia and the grain is not so plump.

Feed Barley Varieties

KWS TOWER Retriever x Saffron KWS 15.1%

This variety is new for 2014 and has the same yield as KWS Glacier but longer straw. It performs equally well on light land and heavy land and

has the lowest screenings losses on the HGCA list, demonstrating well that it produces a very bold sample. It has the same straw strength and

maturity as Cassia with improved disease ratings, though Net Blotch resistance is poor.

VOLUME Hybrid (6 row) Syngenta Not Known

This Hybrid is the highest yielding winter barley you can grow. Seed supplies have been poor historically but Syngenta have been able to scale

up production so Volume will be more readily available in 2014 and we expect it to be popular. The HGCA list shows a good level of yield but

when grown under Syngenta’s guidelines (i.e. lower seed rate, with earlier Nitrogen application, full PGR program) the yield improvements

achieved on farm have been higher than the list suggests. The extra vigour of the hybrids along with that ability to ‘scavenge’ for nutrients

and moisture seems to enable them to cope with stress situations better so the greatest advantages of hybrids can be seen on drought prone

soils or in second/third cereal positions. Please speak to the seed office for more details of the YIELD GUARANTEE offer.

KWS MERIDIAN (6 row) (Kone x Loment) x Fredericus KWS 0.8%

For those growers keen to maximise the yield of straw and grain Meridian offers a useful alternative to the Hybrids. It has the longest straw

available and is rated as a 7 for standing, stiffer than all other 6 row varieties. Meridian is very early to mature and has a relatively large grain

for a 6 row, though specific weight is only moderate. With an excellent all round disease package including BaYMV resistance, Meridian looks

attractive, particularly if the hybrids are seen as too expensive.

Winter Oats

GERALD IBERS 12.3%

First recommended over 20 years ago Gerald is still a popular variety. More recent introductions certainly offer improvements in yield but have

not been able to couple that with good grain quality and Gerald is often 1st choice for the milling market.

MASCANI IBERS 67.4%

Mascani has proved itself to be a reliable alternative to Gerald and is now the number 1 variety. Whilst the yield is slightly lower than Gerald it

has superior disease resistance and very similar straw characteristics. With the highest kernel content, best specific weight and best hullability

Mascani is recognised as a top quality oat. Early to mature.

DALGUISE Senova 11.5%

Dalguise has good grain quality and very early maturity but this comes at the expense of poor Mildew resistance and particularly poor Crown

Rust resistance. Yields are very similar to Gerald but the long straw is rated as 4 for resistance to lodging, the weakest on the list.

BALADO IBERS 0.7%

A very short, stiff strawed variety with a treated yield 4% higher than Gerald. This very high yielder does however have a lower specific weight

and lower kernel content than the other established varieties and it may not suit all oat millers. Disease resistance is relatively poor and

maturity is a few days later than Gerald.

Winter Triticale

NEW for 2014

Coping without NeonicotinoidsNeonicotinoid seed treatments have been relied upon for an effective control of early season pests in oilseed rape for over a decade. However

following the EU Commission’s recent decision to ban this group of insecticides for a 2 year period to investigate further possible connections

to the decline in the bee population, oilseed rape growers face some challenges in ensuring a successful establishment.

Seed treatments such Modesto, Cruiser and historically Chinook gave broad spectrum pest control with the two key pests being cabbage

stem flea beetle and aphids carrying turnip yellows virus. Turnip yellows virus can cause anywhere between 7% and 30% yield reduction and

cabbage stem flea beetle can cause total crop failure in severe cases.

Views vary across the industry as to how best to manage the risk with speculation that numerous insecticide sprays may be required, but one

thing is for sure, growers will have to pay more attention to their crops in the early stages without the safety net of the neonicotinoid seed

treatments.

If the weather conditions do not allow for timely pyrethroid applications there is a high risk that you will lose plants and possibly a crop. Poor

control of aphids could lead to direct feeding damage on emerging seedlings and transmission of turnip yellows virus.

This increase in the amount of spraying is likely to increase pest resistance issues and could ultimately result in a less profitable crop.

How will growers cope?

It is worth mentioning that some feel that the potential impact of the Neonics ban is being exaggerated but at a time when the margins

associated with the crop are under pressure we may see a decline in the acreage of rape grown.

Seed Rate

The idea of increasing seed rates seems counter intuitive as the understanding of high yields coming from the lower plant populations is well

established. However we feel that the most growers will tinker with rates and increase them by 10-20% over the next few seasons until we

know more about how crops will establish.

Timing of drilling

Growers will be more reluctant to drill crops late in the season due to increased risk of crop failure so there will inevitably be a temptation to

drill rape earlier in order to get the crop established. Flea beetle activity will be higher however in early August than the end of the month and

aphid control will also be more expensive. In essence the ideal window of the 3rd and 4th week of August will be more congested than ever.

Hybrid or Conventional

Varieties that show a more vigorous growth pattern at establishment will be more valued. There are vigorous conventional varieties and there

are hybrids that are relatively less vigorous, but generally the hybrids do get out of the ground that bit quicker and produce a stronger, more

resilient plant. Matching the right variety to the anticipated drilling date will be key.

Companion Crops

There is a view that sowing the rape with a companion crop has much to offer as it provides an alternative distraction to the key pests. This

area is worthy of more trials work but the benefits will need to be proven as the extra costs associated here are significant.

Alternative Seed Treatments

Newly developed insecticide products may well be available to growers in the near future and older insecticides with more limited pest activity

will find their way into the UK on seed that is treated elsewhere in Europe. However registration of new products is increasingly both difficult

and expensive, and whilst Bayer and Syngenta are battling to overturn the current ban, there is little prospect of success. Most varieties

are likely to be offered for sale in the UK in 2014 with no insecticide seed

treatment at all.

Growth Stimulant Treatments

Several plant breeders are offering seed treated with a range of micro nutrient

type seed treatments in an effort to aid a speedy establishment. These

products are only applied at low application levels and will have a limited

effect, but given the choice of with or without the added stimulant, anything

that can have a positive impact is worth including.

Varietal Resistance to Turnip Yellow Virus

Some plant breeders have already introduced varieties that have some level of

genetic resistance to turnip yellow virus. This is a very positive development

and will reduce the risk of significant damage. However, the varieties currently

available are a little off the pace of the best performing types with a clear

yield penalty. But inevitably future introductions will see the gap close.

KEREON

The winter triticale variety that combines yield, good grain quality with strong agronomic characters.

Breeder Florimond Desprez, France. Kereon was added to the European Common Catalogue in 2010 and is

widely grown in France. It has been in UK trials and commercially grown throughout the UK since 2013.

Sowing Window Kereon is a true winter variety and can be sown from September to late January.

Extremely High Yield Kereon outyielded Tribeca by 10% in both the HGCA Descriptive List trials and Elsoms private

trials in 2013.

Excellent Straw Kereon is a stiff strawed variety of medium height at about 10cms shorter than Tribeca. However as with all

Strength triticale varieties appropriate PGR use will be required in individual farm situations.

Earliness of Ripening Similar to Tribeca and other popular varieties and about 2 days earlier than Grenado.

Good Disease Very good overall resistance, especially to Mildew and Brown Rust and good resistance to Yellow Rust.

Resistance

Excellent Grain Kereon produces samples of high specific weight. In 2013 Elsoms trials it was 1.5kg/hl higher

Quality than Tribeca and Tremplin at 74 kg/hl

Whole Crop Kereon can be successfully grown for whole crop silage production as well as for grain.


Oilseed Rape

CUBIC Conventional Low Biomass

A very popular variety in the West, particularly with larger growers. The earliest maturing variety available which helps get the

combine rolling. When in trials with HGCA it was higher yielding than all varieties in the West except W21. A true low biomass

variety.

EXCALIBUR Hybrid DEKALB

For many years Excalibur was the leading hybrid. It has early maturity and very good autumn vigour and early spring growth so can

be drilled a little later in the season. It is slightly off the pace in yield terms now but has a loyal following.

AVATAR Hybrid LSPB

Most very high yielders have relatively late maturity but Avatar should be earlier to harvest and help spread the workload. It has

very similar straw characteristics to Excalibur and has relatively vigorous autumn and early spring growth. Only moderate Stem

Canker resistance.

CAMPUS Conventional KWS

A very high yielding conventional variety that is to be considered for next years HGCA list. It had a slightly disappointing year

last year but has potential to be the highest yielding non hybrid after this season. Excellent Stem Canker resistance and the best

resistance to lodging.

MARBLE Semi-Dwarf Hybrid LSPB

A high yielding Semi dwarf that is up for HGCA recommendation in 2014. It offers a significant improvement over the yield of Troy

and comes with the added benefit of solid disease rating and moderately early maturity. Being very short and stiff this one should

stand whatever you throw at it.

HARPER Hybrid Bayer

This looks a useful newcomer as it has good agronomics and is one of the highest yielding varieties with an early maturity. It also

has the best rating available (9) for Stem Canker, the most damaging disease in rape.

DRAGSTER Conventional KWS

This is another conventional variety that is on the ‘grey list’ and up for consideration for next year’s HGCA list. It looks a useful

candidate with low biomass, early maturity and good disease ratings. Could be one to have a look at.

PT211 Hybrid Pioneer

This hybrid has very similar characteristics to sister line W21. It has a slightly higher gross output rating with superior disease

resistance.

TROY Semi-Dwarf Hybrid DSV

Troy is the highest yielding of HGCA listed semi dwarf hybrids. It has been very popular on farm for the last 2 years as it progresses

the low biomass story to the next level. More vigorous than most semi dwarfs. Very stiff straw.

QUARTZ Conventional KWS

Quartz is a variety with excellent Stem Canker resistance. It is relatively short, has moderate stem stiffness and medium maturity.

Variable performance over the last two years.

MENTOR Hybrid (Club Root Resistant) LSPB

Historically those who need a club root resistant variety had to tolerate a yield penalty but Mentor offers a huge yield increase

over the varieties currently available. It is a candidate variety but a limited quantity of seed is available for 2014.

INCENTIVE Hybrid DSV

The highest gross output available for this autumn. Outstanding vigour in the first 45 days of growth. Stiff straw, high oil content

and consistent performance.

PR46 W21 Hybrid Pioneer

A tall yet very stiff strawed hybrid that has demonstrated tremendous consistency over the last few seasons. With one of the

highest gross outputs available it has a place with most growers. Medium maturity.

FASHION Conventional Senova

A good all rounder with a slight yield advantage over the sister variety Vision.

TRINITY Conventional Elsoms

This looks a decent all rounder as it has a very high yield potential, good straw characteristics, and reasonably good disease

ratings. Average maturity.

VISION Conventional Senova

This variety has developed a reputation as being a very reliable and straightforward rape to grow. It has stiff straw and performed

particularly well in the difficult condition in 2012.

CHARGER Conventional Momont

The highest yielding conventional variety. It has shortish straw and is very stiff. Whilst it flowers early it has medium/late

maturity. It is very weak on both Light Leaf spot and Stem Canker.

DK CABERNET Conventional DEKALB

A high yielding non-hybrid with good straw strength. It has late maturity and has suffered from a variable pod set in some

seasons, but usually compensates and yields well. Good resistance to Stem Canker and Light Leaf Spot.

SESAME Conventional LSPB

This high yielding non hybrid is relatively tall, very late maturing and is susceptible to Stem Canker.

Seed Treatment

REDIGO

An excellent “single purpose”, our product of choice on wheat and oats. Protects against seed borne disease and soil borne bunt.

KINTO

An excellent “single purpose”, our product of choice on winter and spring barley. Protects against seed and soil borne diseases.

REDIGO DETER

The benefits of Redigo plus an insecticide offering protection against aphids carrying BYDV (Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus), wireworm, where grass is in the

rotation, and a reduction of grain hollowing from slugs. Very useful if sowing early when aphids are more active or where slug numbers are high after rape.

Also gives some protection against gout fly, Wessex flea beetle and frit fly.

LATITUDE

Always applied with a “single purpose” product and often with a Deter insecticide also. Gives excellent reduction of Take-all. Used on 2nd/3rd and

subsequent wheats where Take-all risk is high. Particularly useful if sowing 2nd/3rd wheat before mid October. Has shown a dramatic improvement in

second wheat yields over several years.

JOCKEY

Seed borne disease control plus good activity against Take-all. Also gives some control/delay of spring disease infections (Rusts and Septoria). Used on

2nd/3rd wheats, particularly if using varieties that are weak on Yellow Rust resistance.

GALMANO

The active ingredient in Galmano is straight Fluquiconazole, the same as Jockey but without the single purpose product. This means it can be co applied

with Redigo Deter. Available at full rate to replace Jockey in 2nd and 3rd cereals or at 2/3 rate as an Epona product on 1st wheats with poor Yellow Rust

resistance.

AUSTRAL PLUS

Seed and soil borne disease protection plus an insecticide to protect against wheat bulb fly and wireworm. Wheat bulb fly can be high after early harvested

crops (e.g. Vining peas or early potatoes). Can be used as an alternative to Redigo Deter for Wireworm protection where grass is in the rotation.

MANGANESE

Applied in addition to any other treatment option. Helps to control Manganese deficiency in autumn and early spring. Improves establishment and winter

hardiness. A very useful back-up to foliar applied Manganese in areas of deficiency.

KICKSTART

Kickstart provides a complex of Phosphate, Phosphite, Zinc, Manganese, Potassium, Nitrogen and Amino Acids giving the plant an ideal nutrient package

to encourage improved root development.

EPONA

A reduced rate of Fluquinconazole used solely as a 1st wheat product to give some early season control of foliar diseases such as Yellow Rust and Septoria

Tritici. Particularly useful on varieties that have very low resistance to Yellow Rust.

www.wynnstay.co.uk26 Wynnstay Group Plc WINTER SEEDS 2015 27

The Wynnstay range of grass seed has grown to become one of the most popular ranges of mixtures in the UK. As well as attracting new customers this growth has been driven by an increased trend towards repeat ordering, one of the most positive indicators that our customers are pleased with the product, performance and value of the mixture range.

You can visit us online at www.grasslandseeds.co.uk

Wynnstay supplies a range of Short, Medium and Long Term Grass leys as well as a full range of root seeds.

Short Term Leys: 1 - 2 years

Fast Grass

One year quick growing grass mixture. If you want a silaging grass seed mixture with very fast establishment and even quicker growth, Fast Grass is the mix for you - the Westerwolds content makes it grow tall and fast for high productivity giving exceptional yield and a top quality cut.

Tower

1-2 year bulky silage grass mixture. If you want up to four cuts of high quality grass silage, Tower will not disappoint. Tower grass seed mix is made up of 100% Italian ryegrasses, which grow at the lowest temperatures of all agricultural grasses therefore growing earliest in the spring and latest in the autumn.

Medium Term Leys: 3 - 6 years

Squire

3 year grass mix with red clover for high energy silage and aftermath grazing. If you want to finish lambs faster or cut a high protein silage, Squire will suit your needs. Hybrid ryegrasses are included in this mix, these are quick to establish, have high yields, high water soluble carbohydrate (sugar) contents and can last up to four years.

Fortress

3-4 year heavy grass production with early grass growth. Fortress is a grass seed mixture with good early spring growth suitable for an early cut or graze. This is a very quick growing grass ley ideally suited to cutting with some light grazing, so if grazing is your priority have a look at the grass mixture Shield.

Shield

4 year quality grazer with silage potential. Shield grass seed mix is ideal for short/medium term grazing; it has good ground cover and very quick regrowth from the hybrid ryegrass. Shield grass seed mix will produce a high quality first silage cut around the third week of May in a normal year.

Sovereign

4-6 year intensive dual purpose grass mix. Sovereign is our best selling grass seed mixture simply because it is specifically designed for intensive management of both cutting and grazing so suits most livestock farming systems as it’s so versatile.

Long Term Leys: 6 Years +

Imperial

Long term cutting and grazing grass mix. Imperial grass seed mixture is made up of all late perennial ryegrasses to give excellent first cut silage. Late perennials also make the grass mix less likely to produce stemmy seed heads in the summer so Imperial maintains a lush leafy sward throughout the grass growing season

Crusader

High sugar grazing with early bite. A long-term grass mixture with good early spring growth making it ideal for turning ewes and lambs out onto. The high diploid content in the Crusader grass mix aids to creates a very dense base to the sward.

Herald

Long term dual purpose grass seed mix. Herald is a versatile grass seed mix for cutting and grazing, it produces a very dense sward so is ideal for turning ewes and lambs out onto in early spring

Kingdom

Long term cutting and grazing grass mix. The blend of intermediate and late perennials gives great flexibility for both cutting and grazing for potentially over 6 years

Majestic

Long term dairy pasture for rotational grazing. Majestic grass seed mixture has a high proportion of tetraploid ryegrass to give maximum grazing potential for your dairy enterprise.

Winter Beans Grass Seeds

We fully expect beans, Winter and Spring sown to grow in importance in

arable rotations in the near future. With both feed and premium export

markets developing significantly and CAP reform offering further potential

incentives, the economics of growing beans start to look much more

favourable when compared with oilseed rape.

Rotation

For husbandry reasons beans are rarely grown more often than one year in

six in a crop rotation. This usually precedes winter wheat which responds

favourably to the higher soil nitrogen status following the bean crop. Beans

are also effective as a break crop by allowing the good control of problem

weeds.

Variety Choice

Most modern varieties of winter and spring beans will suit the export market

but growers should select varieties with a pale hilum, a characteristic

preferred for human consumption. Wizard would be the preferred option for

winter sowing.

Establishment

Possibly the most critical husbandry requirement to get right.

1. Seed rate must be adjusted for Thousand Grain Weight (TGW)

Winter – Aim to sow at 18 – 22 viable seeds /m2 (to establish

15 – 18 plants)

2. Seed must be checked for germination, be free of Aschochytae

and have a nil Stem Eelworm level. Certified seed has to reach

these standards. Home saved seed can be used but must be of

suitable quality.

3. Sow winter beans at 125 – 150mm deep (5 – 6”) and spring

beans at 70 – 80mm deep (3+”)

Bruchid Beetle:

This has become the major pest of winter and spring beans, especially in

the south, in recent years. It is the biggest single reason for lost premium

potential.

• Land in areas of intensive bean production very prone to the

pest

• Headland areas likely to be more badly affected (be prepared to

segregate samples)

• First insecticide timing crucial to achieve control

• Ensure insecticide penetration into lower part of crop canopy

Harvest

• Handle carefully at harvest to avoid cracking the seed coat if

possible.

• Beans should be dried to below 15% Mc immediately post-

harvest

• Drying especially important if admixture is present

• Ensure beans are well ventilated, regardless of harvest moisture

• Ensure stores are kept as dark as possible. Daylight reacts with

the bean skin to increase tanning, and emphasising stains

Export

Remember they are a food crop! Field beans (Faba beans) are often consumed

as Ful Medames or Falafel and are a staple food of many North African and

Middle Eastern countries. The product is often canned or purchased by the

end consumer dry and then pre-soaked before cooking.
