« Back
  • Brompton is high yielding variety with a specific recommendation for the dry (East) region and for growers across the UK who want a variety with genetic resistance to orange wheat blossom midge (OWBM).

  • A hard-milling Group 4 feed wheat.

  • It has performed well in a wide range of situations.

  • Low specific weight.

  • Good resistance to yellow rust and brown rust but susceptible to mildew.

  • No longer grown in RL trials.

  • Breeder/ UK Agent: Elsoms Seeds Ltd (www.elsoms.com ).
