ORGANA
The Groundbreaker - BYDV Tolerant 2-row Feed
Organa is a groundbreaking BYDV tolerant, two row feed barley candidate for 2024.
It is a high yielding variety with very stiff straw, low brackling and excellent disease resistance.
Organa is a BYDV tolerant two-row barley. There are currently no BYDV tolerant two-rows on the RL. With the loss of chemicals, Organa is an exciting step forward and offers growers all of the attributes of a leading feed barley with the added security of a degree of protection from BYDV.
