About
KWS Tardis heralds a new dawn in 2-row winter barley breeding from KWS. It is the highest yielding 2-row winter barley on the new 2021/22 AHDB Recommended List, with a performance that rivals many 6-row hybrid varieties. The variety is particularly strong in the East of the country and especially on heavy land where it yields 110% controls.
It has an excellent disease package, boasting a 7 for Rhynchosporium and Net blotch as well as having a short and stiff straw.
KWS Tardis offers growers the opportunity to expand arable rotations and spread workload on farm.
