CALIFORNIA

This extremely fast-growing milling wheat variety combines an enormous yield potential (APS 9) with favorable agronomic traits. CALIFORNIA matures in the mid-early range, has above-average lodging resistance, and is also highly resistant to lodging during rainy ripening. CALIFORNIA exhibits a generally balanced level of tolerance to leaf and ear diseases. One definite positive is its slightly better resistance to Septoria tritici. In terms of baking quality, CALIFORNIA ranks alongside Ernestus, SIEGFRIED, and THALAMUS. However, when it comes to fertilizer management, the late application rate for CALIFORNIA should be set slightly higher. Sufficient seed will definitely be available again for the upcoming fall planting season.
