About
KWS Glacier is a consistent performer in the 2-row winter barley feed market. With a specific weight of 69.1kg/hl it has a bold grain, which combined with very low screening levels, produces an excellent sample.
Early ripening, KWS Glacier is free-tillering; covering the ground well and filling in any gaps. It is short and stiff with excellent lodging resistance and offers good resistence to net blotch and brown rust.
