Characteristics
About
KWS Ladum is the new spring variety to get excited about this season! It’s the first of the next generation spring wheat varieties for the UK market that brings top milling and baking quality with highly productive yield levels, a massive 5% ahead of Mulika when spring-sown. With fantastic grain quality, including high proteins (13.4%), Hagberg (324) and a specific weight (78.5 kg/hl), it’s a variety that is fully approved by the UK Flour Millers as the highest Group 1 quality. But the advantages of KWS Ladum don’t stop there – it has a good all-round disease package including [7] for mildew, 7 for yellow rust, 6 for brown rust and a good 6 for Septoria – as well as being short and stiff strawed and early to harvest [0 days +/- Mulika]. So, if you want to take your spring wheat yields to the next level, then take a closer look at KWS Ladum and find out how this new variety can add value to this important part of the rotation on your farm this season.
