Juan Triticale

Sustainably Grown/ 2 oz Package

"Juan produces high forage and grain yields. It averages about 10-20% higher is grain
yield than standard wheat cultivars (Anza, Yolo). Juan has long, lax spikes. Short awns extend beyond the length of the spike about one-fourth of the spike length. Glumes are glabrous. Spikes nod at maturity.

Weigh of individual kernels are about 20% heavier than wheat kernels. At the time of release it was resistant to stripe rust, leaf rust, powdery mildew and Septoria tritici leaf blotch, and moderately susceptible to BYD."
