Shorter, early maturing variety
Ninja is a shorter variety with excellent standing ability and the earliest maturity and highest protein content on the PGRO DL 2025.
Its yields are above Tundra and other early varieties and we believe its yield potential is higher than the 5 year dataset in trials shows.
It is a strong choice for higher fertility, wetter areas of the UK.
Ninja has the highest protein content on the DL and large seed and should prove popular for all markets.
