Triticale
Advances in genetics
In 2001, our BIENVENU variety has revolutionized triticale market and has opened area of early and productive varieties. Since them, many breeders have continued to improve yield, often at the hardiness' expense. Nowadays, many varieties are susceptible to powdery mildew and yellow rust.
At LEMAIRE DEFFONTAINES', we have always considered that triticale should be rustic by nature. To meet producers' expectations, our selection choices favored hardiness and qualitative aspects : protein content, specific wheight and, of course, yield potential.
