AC Sadash VB -Spring Wheat, CWSWS

Soft white spring wheat that is high-yielding, high-quality, awned, and midge-tolerant. Semi- dwarf, but with a sturdy, short straw. Choosen for irrigated cultivation in southern Alberta and Saskatchewan to supply the SWS milling market with high-quality, low-protein wheat. Reduced protein content and high grain yields make this a promising candidate for ethanol production.

AC® Sadash VB was selected for grain yield similar to AC Andrew but in addition, has lower protein than AC Andrew. AC® Sadash VB is a semi-dwarf with short, strong straw. It was especially selected for production under irrigation in southern Alberta and Saskatchewan to produce high quality, low protein wheat for the SWS milling market. The lower protein of AC® Sadash VB, along with its high grain yields, should make it very suitable for ethanol production.
