Longhorn Agronomics

Variety with long coleoptile expression but with intermediate height and better lodging resistance than the taller Scout Type wheats.

© 2008 AgriPro. All ratings, including plant height and seed size, may vary with growing conditions.

These agronomic assessments are made by AgriPro scientists and reflect each variety’s relative performance within these characteristics during the 1999-06 crop years. Specific conditions may cause variations within those characteristics. These relative protection values are based on current pest and disease populations. These have been known to shift periodically and may cause changes in specific evaluations. Resistance to many other diseases and pests is sensitive to environmental conditions, plant development stages and the presence and intensity of other diseases which may result in specific evaluation inconsistencies. This chart is updated annually to reflect the most current trends.
