- [00:00:07.220]So this will be,
- [00:00:08.570]we have longterm yield data on this.
- [00:00:10.850]Actually It's been one of the highest
- [00:00:12.490]yielding variety trials in Eastern Nebraska
- [00:00:14.500]over the past several years.

- [00:00:22.390]It's got excellent straw strength,
- [00:00:24.010]probably one of the best varieties
- [00:00:25.570]for standability that I've seen in Eastern Nebraska.

- [00:00:35.660]It's not so bad on Leaf rust.
- [00:00:36.870]We've definitely seen an advantage
- [00:00:38.470]to spraying this variety with the fungicide,

- [00:00:56.760]in a very interesting head on this particular variety,
