Grain Producers SA chair Adrian McCabe said the federal bodies had been liaising with the trade and agriculture ministers on the China trade issue “but this is just another step down the wrong road at the moment”. The wheat threat comes as SA farmers are completing a bumper 9-million-tonne harvest, the best in recent years. The grains industry is still reeling after China imposed a combined 80.5 per cent tariff on Australian barley in May, comprised of a 73.6 per cent anti-dumping duty and a 6.9 per cent countervailing duty. It shows some variability in its baking performance.Cotton and wheat farmers have been warned they could be next after China also this week extended sanctions on Australian timber and slapped new ones on lamb. UKFM comment: This variety has protein levels that are typical of a Group 2. It has very high resistance to septoria tritici and high resistance to yellow rust and mildew. KWS Extase has given very high yields in untreated UK trials. It is a medium-tall variety with relatively stiff straw. It has performed well across a range of soil types, rotational positions and in a late sowing situation. It has given good proteins under a regime to achieve milling specification.Īgronomy: This relatively early maturing variety has given high treated yields throughout the UK. KWS Extase has high Hagbergs and specific weights.

Quality: A UKFM Group 2 variety, classified as a ukp bread wheat for export. Because it is high yielding, nitrogen applications may have to be adjusted to achieve protein specifications. UKFM comment: Large quantities of this variety continue to be seen by millers, and it is popular owing to good milling and baking qualities. It has high resistance to brown rust and fusarium ear blight and carries the Pch1 eyespot resistance gene. Skyfall is the only Group 1 variety with resistance to orange wheat blossom midge. It has given good proteins under a regime to achieve milling specification.Īgronomy: It is an awned wheat with relatively short and relatively stiff straw. Quality: A UKFM Group 1 bread wheat with high Hagbergs and specific weights. UKFM comment: This variety has a higher level of water absorption (a good feature) and demonstrates good bread-making potential, even at lower protein levels. It also carries the Pch1 eyespot resistance gene. RGT Illustrious has high resistance to yellow rust and mildew. It has given good proteins under a regime to achieve milling specification.Īgronomy: This medium-tall and relatively stiff-strawed variety has given UK treated yields comparable to Crusoe. Quality: A UKFM Group 1 bread wheat with high Hagbergs. As a high-yielding variety, nitrogen applications may have to be adjusted to achieve protein specifications. UKFM comment: This variety is popular with millers as it shows good gluten strength and milling quality, alongside a good baking performance. KWS Zyatt carries the Pch1 eyespot resistance gene. It is a relatively early maturing variety and has high resistance to mildew and brown rust, but it is very susceptible to yellow rust. It has high Hagbergs and has given good proteins under a regime to achieve milling specification.Īgronomy: This relatively short and stiff-strawed variety has given high treated yields throughout the UK, across rotational positions and sowing dates (based on limited data), and in trials on heavier soil.

Quality: A UKFM Group 1 variety, classified as a ukp bread wheat for export. The baking performance of this variety is good and consequently it remains popular with millers.

The bread crumb structure is notably white and of good quality. UKFM comment: This variety has consistently demonstrated good protein content and quality. It has high Hagbergs and specific weights and has consistently given good proteins.Īgronomy: This short and relatively stiff-strawed variety has high resistance to yellow rust, mildew, and fusarium ear blight.
