Bicross is a new addition to the AHDB DL 2026/27.
It is an alternative type of triticale similar to farm favourite
KWS Fido, moving away quickly in the spring. It is possible to
sow Bicross from autumn through to early spring.
Bicross has the benefits of a 9 rating for yellow rust, is early to
ripen and has a high specific weight and complements our other leading variety Lumaco well.
