Characteristics
About
KWS Chilham was the first true dynamic spring wheat, providing growers with sound agronomics, good yield potential and added value market options as a UKFM Group 2 bread maker. It is a vigorous, high-yielding variety with a competitive growth habit and will lend itself as a tool to help blackgrass control. In addition, it produces good quality grain with a high 359 Hagberg and a good specific weight (78.1 kg/hl). At a 0 for maturity, it is ideal for growers looking for an earlier harvest time too.
