Es Astrid

Es Alienor

 

Grainseed are proud to offer Es Astrid, the highest yielding conventional winter oilseed rape as well as offering the highest rating “8” for resistance to stem canker, highest rating “8” for resistance to lodging, highest rating “8” for stem stiffness and another “8” for shortness of stem. No wonder we say she is the perfect “8”.

 

Es Alienor is a superb new low biomass oilseed rape. Early to mature, with excellent disease resistance as well as field attributes. A high oil content completes a package which makes Alienor a variety any farmer would love to grow

 

With these two varieties to chose from and a market eager to buy the crop the obvious choice is to buy either Es Astrid or Es Alienor.

 

There are a large number of buy back contracts for industrial and bio diesel uses to be had for the crops. As we move further into an era where processed oilseed rape is appearing as a growing percentage in every litre of Diesel fuel it makes commercial sense to grow winter oilseed rape.
