Bamford tops our continuous wheat trials for 2024.

This high-performing winter wheat tops all previous yields recorded since trials began in 2017.


Group 3 winter wheat Bamford achieved a yield of 12.2t/ha, the highest ever recorded yield for any variety in the 8 year history of the GrainCo continuous wheat trial, according to Yorkshire farmer Steve Buckle and Peter Collins, Seed Manager at GrainCo.


The trial, hosted by Steve on his 115ha farm at Boroughbridge, near York, assessed 17 winter wheats, all drilled on 0.5 acre plots during the 2nd week of October with all varieties receiving exactly the same input regime.
