AMBASSADOR
AMBASSADOR is a hugely popular variety with Irish WOSR growers, and has delivered reliable, consistent results on farm for the past 3 seasons
Speed of establishment and the opportunity to grow away from early pest damage are recognised as key attributes by growers for establishing oilseed rape crops in Ireland.
Ambassador has a very strong disease resistance package with RLM7 plus quantitative resistance against Stem Canker combined with good resistance to Light Leaf Spot, a disease widespread throughout Ireland.
The variety is medium-late to flower, ensuring there is less petal and pod formation damage from any potential late frosts during the flowering period.
