ABACUS

Abacus spring linseed

Early Maturing Variety

Abacus spring linseed combines early maturity with good on farm seed yields, which come from an intense and prolonged flowering period. Abacus shows excellent resistance to the onset of powdery mildew and is suitable for all areas and conditions. The vigorous lateral branching of Abacus interlocks to provide a self supporting canopy, with good standing power and even maturity to facilitate combining.

 

Abacus is a medium height, white flowered variety, which produces medium-small brown seeds.
