Vantage
is a high protein, high test weight hard red spring wheat bred for high
input production systems that produces a hardy main stem and one strong
tiller similar to Granite. The stems are very sturdy and have heads
that are uniform, highly fertile, and densely packed with seed.
Vantage is rated moderately susceptible to leaf rust, moderately resistant
to foliar disease, and resistant to stem rust. Vantage is moderately
susceptible to scab but in severely scab-impacted environments, Vantage had
50% less scab than Granite. Vantage is a free threshing variety with
good shatter resistance. |
