- Extremely versatile, growing well on light and heavy soil
- A robust disease package, which includes a fantastic septoria resistance
Champion remains one of the top yielding varieties available. The variety is vigorous, upright, and has huge tillering capacity. To keep its straw under control, delay sowing to October and use a robust PGR programme. It is extremely versatile, growing well on light and heavy soil, and showing good results in the 2nd wheat slot too. A robust disease package, which includes a fantastic septoria resistance helps give Champion a 90% untreated yield. A poorer specific weight is the variety's downfall but, it doesn't take anything away from what is a fantastic variety.
