KWS Valentor

A Technological Breakthrough in Winter Rye

KWS Valentor is the answer for farmers seeking maximum profitability in grain production amidst a changing climate. Developed by the German breeder KWS Lochow GmbH, this hybrid is designed for intensive growth, allowing it to efficiently convert mineral nutrition into high yields. Unlike traditional varieties, this hybrid demonstrates exceptional stability in performance, even under fluctuating moisture conditions.

Ergot Protection as a Quality Standard

A major challenge in rye cultivation has always been susceptibility to ergot. KWS Valentor features the POLLENPLUS technology, which fundamentally changes this dynamic. The increased pollen production and rapid shedding create a natural barrier against fungal infections. This is not merely a marketing claim, but a tangible reduction in fungicide costs and a guarantee of high-quality grain suitable for both the milling industry and livestock feed.

The Economics of Intensive Farming

This hybrid reaches its full potential when managed with intensive farming practices. It is highly responsive to fertilizer application, making it an ideal choice for operations utilizing modern agronomic protocols. Its stable yield performance across diverse soil and climatic conditions in Ukraine, confirmed by its 2026 state registration, allows for precise production planning.

• Usage: Versatile — food and feed production.
• Resistance: Enhanced protection against ergot via POLLENPLUS.
