Characteristics
About
KWS Harsum is a high yielding Group 1 breadmaking wheat on the 2025/26 RL. Following on from the successful yield increase growers have experienced using new generation spring wheat from KWS, such as KWS Ladum, Harsum continues the breeding progress introducing midge resistance to a top quality, top yielding variety. Confirmed as a Group 1 wheat by the UK Flour Millers in December 2022, KWS Harsum produces similar grain to established variety Mulika, but with the added benefit of good gluten quality and baking performance, consistent across a range of challenging seasons.
