Characteristics
About
In short, KWS Feeris is a great variety in its own right but coupled with the added benefit of BYDV tolerance, it is a great choice for those looking to grow barley in high BYDV hotspots or for those looking to push drilling as early as possible. So, for growers looking to reduce inputs and produce a more sustainable winter barley crop this season, KWS Feeris is the only barley they need to put in the drill.

In the case of KWS Feeris, its BYDV tolerance will provide growers with peace of mind in knowing that they will not have to worry about infection in the autumn. Large falls in commodity prices since last year have led many farming businesses to focus on de-risking all aspects of their operations.
