GRAIN VARIETY DESCRIPTION 
THORNE—Developed in Ohio and has 
been the most widely used variety in a 
number of states. Red chaffed, beardless, 
very stiff strawed, high yielding and has 
excellent milling quality. Has outyielded 
all of the older varieties and is adapted to 
a wide area. 
SENECA—A newer variety closely relat- 
ed to Thorne. Similar in appearance as it 
is red chaffed, beardless, stiff strawed and 
of equal milling quality. Has shown a 
slight yield advantage over Thorne and 
averages higher in test weight. 
PENNOLL—A new Pennsylvania variety, 
light chaffed, beardless, stiff strawed, high 
test weight and excellent yielder. Has good 
resistance to stinking smut, good milling 
qualities and test weights and yields have 
equalled or surpassed other varieties. 
VIGO—An Indiana variety, winter hardy, 
high yielding, and excellent test weight. 
A smooth white chaffed wheat, taller and 
not quite as stiff as Thorne and Seneca. 
Has performed best in Western Ohio and 
Indiana, with yields not as good East from 
these points. Outstanding characteristics 
have been winter hardiness and high test 
weight. 
WHEAT - BARLEY - RYE - OATS 
BUTLER — A bearded, white chaffed 
wheat, excellent stiffness and is winter 
hardy. specially suited if wheat sowing 
is late. Has outyielded Thorne and is 
higher in test weight. Most popular in 
Southern and Western Ohio but also has 
fe good production record in other sec- 
tions. 
OHIO NO. 1 BARLEY—Similar to Ken- 
tucky No. | barley but has excelled in 
yield under Ohio conditions. Bearded, aver- 
age straw stiffness, should be sown ten 
days ahead of wheat to get well started 
before winter. Not as hardy as wheat or 
rye so produces better where winters are 
less severe or when winters are mild. 
KENBAR BARLEY—A new variety re- 
leased by Kentucky and Pennsylvania. Has 
outyielded Kentucky and Ohio barleys. Is 
much stiffer and finer strawed, medium 
early maturing but is not considered quite 
as winter hardy. Probably the best in the 
winter barley growing area. 
KENTUCKY BARLEY—Similar to Ohio 
No. | barley and has been the most widely 
used variety. Fairly winter hardy and is 
a good producer. All barley should be 
vps ahead of the normal wheat seeding 
ates. 
BALBO RYE—IlIs considered superior to 
common or Rosen type rye for pasture as 
it is more leafy and generally higher 
yielding for fall or spring pasture. Superior 
production seems to lessen in Northern 
sections. 
TETRA PETKUS RYE—A new winter 
rye, high yielding, vigorous, stiff strawed, 
strong root system. Has outyielded com- 
mon rye and wheat by 15 to 20 bushels 
per acre. Produces large tonnage for fall 
pasture or summer silage. Well liked by 
livestock, gives no off-flavor to milk. Ex- 
cellent as a cover crop or for plow-under. 
Needs to be well fertilized and should not 
be grown within 100 feet of other rye be- 
cause of cross pollination. An important 
addition to grain and feed production. 
WINTER TURF OATS — There are a 
number of certified and satisfactory win- 
ter oats varieties for states that have mild 
winters or can make early spring seedings. 
Winter or fall oats is less winter hardy 
than barley, wheat or rye and is not 
recommended for Ohio, only to a limited 
extent in Pennsylvania and on north. The 
Winter Turf variety is considered more 
winter hardy and has a better chance of 
producion in most of the borderline areas.
