Our largest demo of the season was harvested a few weeks ago and results are in. What I love about this, is the yield is not as important as the relative yield to another variety, under the same management. These are not scientific or replicated, but we do have bookmark varieties on each end of the plots to make sure the plot is somewhat even. This demo was seeded April 28th and harvested Sept 8th. Plant stand targets were 35 plants on the durum, 40 on the spring wheat and 25 plants on the barley with 10% mortality built into all of those. 40 lbs of 11-52 was placed in seed row & 175 lbs of 46-0-0 was banded before seeding. Crop rotation was potatoes last year. A PGR was used on half the plot to try and showcase lodging and a fungicide was applied at the start of flowering on the whole plot. 2025 SWSW, SWGP, GP Red It was neck and neck for yield and standability for these classes of wheats, The biggest thing to take away is that the price of these are not far off of a CWRS so the extra yield vs a CRWS makes them an easy decision for 2026. Chart is above with the CRWS chart Galore VB SWSW - replacing Sadash VB & Paramount VB. Galore seemed to stand a little better vs the other SWSW and has the I rating for FHB. Alotta (GP red) stands amazing & has the GP+ red market or feed or forage Awesome GP (soft white) is in a class on its own for forage or feed it seems and has an I rating for FHB.
