VARIETY OVERVIEW:
YIELD PERFORMANCE:
RGT Universe is another very high output candidate feed wheat from RAGT. Only a
whisker behind RGT Gravity in the yield stakes, except in the north region where it came
top in NL2 trials, this soft feed wheat has delivered everywhere. With a Hagberg value
of 174 and 75.6kh/hl specific weight, its grain will be in demand among compounders
and millers. As with RGT Gravity, seed production is being fast-tracked this season due
to the very keen interest being shown among end users and growers.
