@BarleyPlanet Hi, RGT Planet has been grown in Australia for several years and is best adapted to the higher yield environments (in an Australian context, that is greater than 4t/ha). In the Australian context, the variety would not be considered as drought resilient.

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

@KithsiriJayase3 @InterGrain1 @DPIRDWA @theGRDC Thanks Kith, but something for you to watch: Neo is excellent for SFNB and PM, good for NFNB but is leaf rust susceptible (not bad, but it is susceptible) ... it's one weakness ... please manage.

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

@PaulRundle82 @InterGrain1 @DPIRDWA @theGRDC It is a RGT Planet derivative, so similar in some ways eg growing season length, but shorter, hence higher harvest index, meaning slightly less straw and improved lodging tolerance @InterGrain1

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

Sensational performance from "The One" = IGB22102T ... coming soon to Australian growers from @InterGrain1 🍻

12t/ha spring barley yield has us very excited! Not bad for a 5-month crop! Uncorrected for moisture atm but don't expect it to change too much. Control var. RGT Planet in yellow #hyperYieldingCrops @theGRDC @far_australia @Pooley_Nick_FAR

#MaximusCL looking great at Northam!

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

@cutabove77 @strathalbyncc Good looking deck. I still might be able to score a run on that.

@DMAg_consultant @nullaboo48 @InterGrain1 We had quite severe brackling at a WA trial site. Maximus was the standout variety in terms of brackling tolerance/resistance. Spartacus and La Trobe were bad but there were others that were worse! 😄

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

A few RWA moving into our resistance/seed dressing trial at Coomalbidgup. Testing out how good the resistance in IGB1954 really is. Stay posted. Thanks Svet Micic and Luke Marquis for your support. @InterGrain1

Launching COMMODUS CL (IGB1908), our newest IMI barley! Agronomically similar to Compass and well suited to medium-low rainfall environments, it’s worth a look!

[InterGrain @InterGrain1]

A very visible difference! #MaximusCL (L) vs #SpartacusCL (R) side by side in the paddock - Horsham. #MaximusCL radiantly showing its anthocyanin expression. #bankmanagershour

[Katherine Munn @katherinemunn2]

#Maximusbarley looking beautiful near North Star! Fingers crossed for a smooth harvest 👌

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

The Maximus CL Coopers Pale Ale has arrived! Long live the Gladiators! @InterGrain1

@joshreichstein @InterGrain1 @coopersbrewery @TressWalmsley And when is the beer available for drinking? 🍺

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

@chriswalsh008 @mrlange81 @agrobaz Any interest in RWA resistance in barley? See InterGrain's IGB1954 in NVT. La Trobe type with La Trobe performance.

[David Moody @DavidBMoody]

@iank1963 Do you want resistant varieties or can it be easily managed? What options to you have if imidacloprid is banned in Australia?
