KWS PATRIOT
KWS PATRIOT is a high-yielding 2-row variety that featured in Irish trials for three years from 2018 to 2020 – see
results below. During that time, it showed itself to be extremely consistent across 3 very different growing seasons, delivering an
average performance that was almost on par with another new 2-row variety at the time, LG Casting.
- Consistent & high-yielding variety that performs across all soil types
- Taller than most other 2-rows but with good standing power and resistance to crackling
- Good resistance to wet weather diseases, especially Net Blotch and Rhynchosporium
- Exhibits very good autumn and spring vigour, tillers well and copes well in difficult growing conditions
- Slightly earlier maturing than other 2-rows, good grain quality with high KPH & large TGW
