Belvoir is a high yielding group 4, hard feed alternative wheat, offering growers the opportunity to capture yield potential across a wide range of later season sowing dates.

Belvoir can be sown from late October right through to mid-April, Sown in the late Autumn, an alternative wheat will invariably give higher yields than an equivalent winter wheat sown at the same time. Belvoir is no exception, out yielding traditional winter wheat varieties such as Grafton and duxford when sown in the late autumn slot.
