Strengths:
- Very Good for Heavy Residue Situations
- Resistant to Tan Spot, Septoria, and Bacterial Blight
- Excellent Drought Tolerance
- Resistant to Stem Rust
Comments:
SY Wolf will likely respond to a fungicide if Stripe Rust is a problem. Otherwise, its leaf disease resistance package is excellent. It has a very good combination of Tan Spot and Septoria resistance, which makes it well suited for heavy residue situations. Its baking quality is slightly less desirable than most. SY Wolf has good stay-green. It can take good advantage of long fill periods to increase yields.
Phillips Seed's Management Tips:
- Excellent choice for continuous wheat programs because of its resistance to Tan Spot.
- Not the best choice to follow corn.
- Plant after the "fly free" date.
- 2014 was an excellent year for SY Wolf with an average of 105.2% of plot averages across 11 KSU Yield Tests.
