SHB2 WHEAT
Outstanding
When you plant HYTEST SRB2 for your winter wheat crop you can save
money right up front because 100 lbs. to the acre is ideal, no need to plant
more. You’ll get a phmt with strength and medium hill height—great for
straw or grain. Tills top yielding soft red winter wheat shows good fall
growth. An ideal performer for eastern conditions.
