Characteristics
About
KWS Scope brings new genetics to UK growers; the cross has German-bred wheat Informer as one of its parents. Informer was a very successful European wheat which was tall but clean and had bread-making potential. KWS Scope is a shorter, earlier Graham type wheat that is in trial in the UK and across Germany and Scandinavia. In terms of yield potential, KWS Scope has delivered excellent yields, especially in 2023 & 2024 when It was one of the highest yielding wheat lines in NL2 trials (107% controls) in 2023 & 111% in 2024. Last year, it entered the Recommended List as the highest yielding winter wheat. It performs particularly well in the AHDB West region (107%). A medium-high tillering variety, KWS Scope is a short (90cm without PGR) and stiff variety which has the same maturity to its predecessor. It has a 6.6 rating for Septoria and comes with the benefits of OWBM resistance.
