The most profitable and reliable crop rotation on Irish farms 2016-2018 (as analysed by Teagasc) is one that includes a proportion of winter cereals. This is very valuable information for growers and their agronomists deciding what to drill in 2020/2021. These profits are based on high winter cereal yields and you need a good reliable break crop to set up your farm to drill winter cereals at the best time and get the most from your investment.
Winter oilseed rape is often not drilled as its margin looks low compared to a good wheat or barley crop. On the face of it, this appears correct but how many 4.5 tonne/ac crops of wheat follow wheat or barley? The true benefit of rape needs to be valued correctly and teased out as this table below attempts but we advise each grower to adjust for their own situation.
SEEDTECH WINTER OILSEED RAPE PORTFOLIO 2020
WHY GROW WINTER OILSEED RAPE IN 2020?
WINTER OILSEED RAPE
ANASTASIA, AQUILA and DARIOT are excellent and reliable varieties of winter oilseed rape for 2020 drilling. These are fully recommended by the Irish Department of Agriculture trials and have performed very well on farm.
A new technology that many winter cereal growers might be interested in is Clearfield oilseed rape. These are varieties of oilseed rape that you can apply a special herbicide to called Cleranda. This herbicide will control charlock, runch and volunteer rape from previous crops. PLURAX CL and PHOENIX CL are Clearfield winter oilseed rape varieties that are very suited to growing in Ireland as they have excellent stem stiffness and harvest characteristics.

PLURAX CL A NOVEL WEED MANAGEMENT SOLUTION IN OILSEED RAPE
CLEARFIELD
WINTER OILSEED RAPE
These are varieties of oilseed rape, specially bred to tolerate a herbicide (imazamox) that will control charlock, runch and volunteer winter/spring rape growing in the rape.
This allows growers to grow a profitable crop of winter oilseed rape in fields that would not be possible to do so.
Clearfield varieties have a slight yield lag (5-10%) compared to the top yielding winter oilseed rapes but are closing the gap each season.
In terms of agronomics, PLURAX CL is excellent to stand and contains pod shatter genes. It also has very good Light Leaf Spot resistance making it a safe choice to grow in Ireland.
CLEARFIELD SYSTEM
• Drill 50 seeds/m2 (70 seeds/ m2 in September)
• Very rapid autumn growth
• Autumn PGR not required, benfits from spring PGR/ canopy management
• Apply Cleranda herbicide according to manufacturers instructions

DRILL PLAN
KWS JOYAU is a new 6-row conventional winter barley that has BYDV tolerance genes
• Tolerates BYDV infection
• Exceptional yield in DAFM 2019 trials
• Early to mature so will help spread the harvest
• Yields normally even if infected with BYDV (can display symptoms)*
• Does not reduce aphid numbers – may require aphid sprays if numbers are very high/feeding
• BYDV tolerance lasts to harvest – useful in mild winter/limited spray days/resistant aphids
• Early to grow in spring and early to mature so helps spread the harvest

DRILL PLAN
• Suitable for early drilling
• Slow, steady spring growth but fastest to ripen
• Bright, clean head delivering well filled grains
• Stiff to stand
• Suitable for early drilling as slow autumn and early spring growth
• Drill 300 seeds/m2 up to mid October to maximise tiller capacity
• Grows rapidly after gs 30 to help yield forming leaves move away from septoria
• Good disease scores help keep to planned fungicide budgets
• Early to harvest so helps spread workload

• Exceptional on farm performance 2017-2019 (c. 10-11 t/ha grain yield)
• Less fungicides & nitrogen than winter wheat
• Very secure harvest with very low risk of lodging, sprouting and Fusarium
• Very suitable for wholecrop, as grain markets are developing
• Drill 200 seed/m2 from mid Sept to early October
• Drill into take-all prone sites for maximum benefits
• Drill shallow (less than 5 cm), watch for slugs
• Apply plant growth regulators early, often and at robust rates in spring

KEY POINTS
• Highest yielding malt barley on DAFM list 2020
• Excellent disease resistance – our cleanest barley
• Zero GN variety so flexible for end use markets
• Requires straw management to achieve top yields
SUGGESTED AGRONOMY
SEEDLING RATE: 350 seeds/m2
TARGET PLANT COUNT: 300 plants/m2
TARGET HEAD COUNT AT HARVEST: 1000 heads/m2
ROTATION: Avoid years 1-3 after ley, suits long term arable rotations
BASE FERTILIZER: Ensure good Potassium (K) levels, normal lime
and Phosphorous (P)
NITROGEN FERTILIZER: Max 150 kg/ha (120 units/ac) – adjust for organic manures etc.
Typically LAUREATE receives 125kg N/ha (100 units/ac) to
manage lodging and achieve exceptional yields
FUNGICIDE: Normal/reduced programs suit LAUREATE as excellent
disease resistance
PGR: Apply PGR to reduce lodging risk such as:
CCC/ Moddus/Medax Max at gs 30-32
or
Terpal/Medax Max at gs 32-39
Consult an IASIS approved agronomist for specific PGR advice
