Triticale BG Triflex 2S

European genetics for high yields

The BG Triflex 2S triticale, developed by the Slovenian company Biogranum d.o.o., exemplifies specialized breeding aimed at stability in volatile climatic conditions. Its main competitive advantage lies in the combination of a robust vegetative structure and adaptability to various soil types.

Key Specifications

• Originator: Biogranum d.o.o. (Slovenia).
• Plant Height: 130–140 cm.
• Primary Use: Grain and forage production.

The significant height (reaching 140 cm) ensures not only high grain yields but also excellent biomass production. This makes BG Triflex 2S an attractive option for farms focusing on intensive livestock production that require high-quality silage or protein-rich forage grain.

Strengths and Considerations

A major advantage of this cultivar is its origin. Slovenia, with its varied terrain and climate zones, provides the ideal foundation for developing highly adaptive crops. Triflex 2S exhibits excellent winter hardiness and resistance to common foliar diseases, which helps reduce fungicide application costs. However, when selecting this cultivar, agronomists should consider its height: on soils with high nitrogen levels, the use of growth regulators may be necessary to prevent lodging.

Who is this for? Primarily for farmers focused on maximizing the number of feed units per hectare. While the cultivar requires good agronomic management, it offers performance potential that shorter varieties often fail to reach.
