KWS Palladium
Group 2
. KWS Palladium is a Group 2 wheat attracting potential milling premiums. It is an early
maturing variety with a high HFN, protein content and excellent resistance to sprouting
giving growers' security at harvest. KWS Palladium is a very clean wheat thanks to an
impressive set of disease scores including Septoria 7.2 Mildew 8 and Yellow Rust 9. KWS
Palladium performs consistently in all regions in both the first and second wheat positions
and across a wide range of soil types. It is a medium tall stiff strawed variety with good
lodging resistance making it well suited to earlier drilling and more fertile sites.
