SY ROWYN - GET GROWIN' WITH SY ROWYN
PAGE 10GET GROWIN’ WITH SY ROWYN
NEW FOR 2018, ALLIANCE SEED IS EXCITED TO LAUNCH ITS NEW
CPSR VARIETY, SY ROWYN.
ALL AROUND PERFORMER
Released as a Dark Northern Spring (DNS) line in the US Northern
Plains in 2014, SY Rowyn is known south of the border as the
“all-around performer”, offering wheat growers consistently high yields,
good straw strength, very good disease resistance, including strong
tolerance to FHB infection.
Within Canada, SY Rowyn has shown excellent results across the
prairies, stretching from the Peace River region in AB across to the Red
River Valley in Manitoba. Canadian producers looking to push their
wheat yields higher while maintaining access to good milling wheat markets can now access
NEW FOR 2018!
SY Rowyn through the Alliance Seed Grower and Retail network.
EXCELLENT MILLING QUALITY
SY Rowyn brings a quality profile to the CPSR class which has attracted a lot of attention from our
grain partners and their customers.
Through variety registration and post registration assessment,
SY Rowyn:
• Consistently sits atop the CPSR class for protein, and tracks at a
modest discount to CWRS
• Displays good wheat flour characteristics, including high falling
numbers and low protein loss
• Possesses good milling characteristics, including flour yield and low ash similar to CWRS checks
• Shows excellent dough properties including improved stability to CWRS checks, and excellent
gluten strength
• Bakes as good as many CWRS lines, with excellent loaf volumes
EXCITING MARKET OPTIONS
SY Rowyn is win for grain producers and marketers alike. It’s improved
agronomy with high protein and yield potential affords producers the
opportunity to produce more high quality milling wheat on the same
acres, while the improved quality profile gives the grain trade more
opportunity and agility with its end use customers.
Whether improving the quality of the general CPSR pool, accessing new export markets due to
SY Rowyn’s prairie wide distribution, selling to a readily accessible U.S. DNS market familar with the
variety, or increasing the CPSR component of a millers grist without sacrificing product quality,
SY Rowyn has quickly become a favourite of producers and grain handlers alike.
