HYBRID WINTER RYE

Winter Triticale is a cross between winter wheat and winter rye that combines the high yield potential, grain quality, and disease resistance of winter wheat with the winter hardiness and lower fertility requirements of winter rye.

Maintains the best forage quality, particularly if harvesting is delayed, of all the winter grains. Cut before heading for best forage quality.

TULUS TRITICALE GRAIN YIELD PERFORMANCE AT MULTIPLE LOCATIONS ACROSS MINNESOTA AND IOWA IN 2022.

Will you have more FX1001 available this year? It seemed to be much hardier than what the neighbors were growing and matured about one and a half weeks sooner! The best triticale in our area. Had a lot of positive comments from neighbors who noticed the difference. It yielded 3.0 to 3.5 tons dry matter, and I was just very happy with that variety and its ability to handle tough conditions.
