- Kingbale is a single gene IMI tolerant oaten hay variety – a world first
- Mid-maturing variety with improved tolerance to soil residual imidazolinone herbicides
- An ideal variety for use where there are IMI residue concerns from previous crops
- Tall variety with good early vigour
- Preliminary data shows Kingbale has a similar disease and agronomic profile to Wintaroo
- CCN resistant
- Rust (likely susceptible) will require proactive management
- SVS to red leather leaf, similar to Wintaroo
- Yield information is currently limited
- Kingbale is a single gene IMI tolerant variety
- Sentry Herbicide (IBS use pattern only) can be used in Kingbale crops intended for forage, oaten hay or seed production (not for grain production this season as further studies are being conducted).
- When used in accordance with label instructions, Sentry herbicide is safe on the crop and suitable for use in export oaten hay crops as no detectable residues are expected in either oaten hay or forage.
