Winter barley KWS Propower is a high-yielding hybrid (F1), developed for silage and biogas production. This variety is characterized by high green mass yield, reaching up to 45 tons per hectare even under drought conditions, making it a benchmark for silage mass productivity. Barley exhibits rapid development in early growth stages, which facilitates timely harvest formation and optimal nutrient accumulation.
KWS Propower features high disease resistance due to the PollenPLUS technology, which enhances pollen production and reduces infection by powdery mildew. Dry matter content in silage ranges from 30-40%, while starch content reaches 17-22% when harvested in the milk-to-wax ripening stage. These parameters make the hybrid particularly valuable for biogas production, where gas yield per ton of silage is comparable to corn silage and reaches approximately 200 cubic meters.
Additionally, the variety is suitable for use in food industry and livestock farming, providing high-quality first-class grain. Barley KWS Propower is adapted to various soil and climatic conditions, expanding its cultivation potential. Thanks to its high yield and superior characteristics, this hybrid is an effective solution for farmers focused on silage, biogas, and high-quality grain production.
