Feed Wheat

One of the most exciting additions to the UK wheat market for a number of years due to the fact that it has BYDV resistance. Even without this trait it is a very good variety in its own right, with a sound disease package and a yield comparable to the most popular UK wheats. Extremely small quantities in 2020 but expect to have a huge impact in autumn plantings in 2021.

BIPO SCHEME EXPLAINED
The BIPO (Breeder’s Intellectual Property Offi ce) scheme is an alternative royalty collection scheme to the standard BSPB method. Here the grower will pay the royalty element of their seed directly to BIPO rather than the price being included in certifi ed seed purchased. It is also on an area basis rather than a tonnage basis. It is a simple process where growers register by going to www.bipo.org.uk aand scroll over RAC Grower Agreement before selecting Create

New RAC Grower Agreement. Once submitted you will receive a grower number and then will just have to quote this when ordering any varieties on this scheme such as Wolverine and Sensation (BYDV tolerant winter barley).
