Two-rowed winter malting barley

The new quality winter malting barley LIVADA will replace the well-established PIROSKA starting in the fall of 2024 and will perfectly complement the main variety KWS DONAU. LIVADA has been registered in the Austrian variety list with yield performances identical to KWS DONAU and Sonja. Agronomically, LIVADA is also perfectly suited for domestic winter malting barley regions and shows a significant improvement in lodging resistance with APS 4. However, the greatest advantage lies in the grain and malt quality. LIVADA is literally the “Ferrari” in the current portfolio. The highest screening values, optimal protein content, and top scores in all parameters of malt quality form the foundation for the significant market relevance of this new proprietary variety. LIVADA is now also being developed outside Europe in many European countries as a high-quality winter malting barley.
