Variety Highlights
High yield
Very consistent performance across the region
KS Providence has proven itself as a very well adapted and extremely high yielding variety for Kansas and beyond. It is intermediate to stripe rust, resistant to stem rust, leaf rust, and soil-borne mosaic virus and has an intermediate response to acid soils, good down to 5.5 pH. The FHB resistance will likely be adequate for producers in the central corridor. The primary benefit of this line is very high yield potential.
