Gainer 154 Triticale

As a hybrid cross between wheat and cereal rye, this small grain brings together the positive aspects of both. The leafy, high tillering nature of wheat is paired with the greater yield and cold tolerance of cereal rye. Matures between 8-14 days later than cereal rye,  an excellent base for cover crops or straw potential.

• Triticale establishes quickly and grows through the colder season and degrades more quickly than cereal rye, providing an excellent weed mat as a cover crop with reduced nitrogen tie-up. 
• Triticale can handle cold conditions, so later planting is not an issue with this small grain.
