Barley Loreley

Stable yields with German breeding

The Loreley six-row winter barley from the Nordsaat Saatzucht breeding house is a tool for agronomists who prioritize reliability and predictable results. With a plant height of 90–100 cm, the variety forms a robust ear capable of withstanding heavy loads, which minimizes the risk of lodging under intensive cultivation technologies.

Phytosanitary potential

A key feature of this variety is its comprehensive resistance to a wide range of pathogens that traditionally affect winter cereals. In conditions of high humidity, when the risk of foliar diseases increases, Loreley shows high resistance to:

• Mycosphaerella blotch;
• Plant rust;
• Rhynchosporium;
• Powdery mildew;
• Brown blotch.

Notably, the variety possesses genetic resistance to net blotch and leaf rust. This allows the farmer to optimize spending on fungicide protection, reducing the number of field operations and overall costs for crop protection products.

Production characteristics

The variety is characterized by excellent grain filling. The thousand-kernel weight ranges from 48 to 50 grams, ensuring high test weight indicators. By choosing Loreley, agricultural producers receive a crop adapted to climate risks, capable of demonstrating stable marketable output even in years with unfavorable phytosanitary backgrounds. It is ideal for producing high-quality feed, featuring excellent protein content and energy value.
