Ironbark Wheat
Ironbark is derived from Beckom and has inherited several of the major traits that have made Beckom such a popular variety. Ironbark maintains a compact plant canopy, similar maturity, and carries aluminium (acid) and boron tolerance genes. Ironbark also has a number of improvements over Beckom including better yield performance, larger grain size and therefore lower screenings losses, and an ability to maintain yield in high disease pressure situations. Ironbark has improved disease resistance ratings for both stripe and leaf rust.
