Reliant
Late season plant
- A high yielding mid-season maturity variety, suited to NSW and Queensland, with similar planting window to Suntop
- APH (NNSW/QLD) and AH (SNSW) with substantially lower screenings at a higher yield than Suntop
- Resistant to Stem Rust (R) and Leaf Rust (R-MR), has adult plant resistance to stripe rust (MR-MS)
- A double haploid variety developed from a Crusader/EGA Gregory cross that has Gregory's tillering and Crusaders tightly packed heads
We thoroughly enjoyed growing Reliant wheat in 2016. Throughout the growing season the crop looked healthy with no disease issues, standability was great and the crop was exceptionally easy to harvest. We were thoroughly pleased with our yield and only 2% screenings.
