From a self-pollinating variety to an outcrossing hybrid
Through our knowledge of plant genetics, we’ve changed barley from a self-pollinating variety to one in which pollen flows from male to female plants. This means we can create hybrids with high yields and robust vigor. With the use of agronomic protocols, seed production can be maximized.
Frank Edelbauer, who plants HYVIDO® hybrid barley on his farm in Germany, says it “has made a good impression on us” by delivering high grain weights and good yields.
