In collaboration with InterGrain, one of Australia’s leading cereal breeding companies, Syngenta brings elite barley varieties, like Rosalind, to the Australian grains industry, enabling growers to compete effectively in both domestic and international markets.

David Moody, a highly respected barley breeder with InterGrain, gives us a season update from the field on Rosalind in his latest video.

Rosalind provides growers with an exceptionally high yielding, mid-season feed barley. An ideal variety for growers looking for sowing date flexibility and a solid disease resistance package, including good Leaf Rust, Powdery Mildew and Net Form of Net Blotch resistance.
