The wheat variety guide summarises performance characteristics of commercially available wheats which have undergone testing in the National Variety Testing Project (NVT), and Department of Agriculture and Food (DAFWA) wheat agronomy project.

This information includes variety summaries, agronomic, disease and herbicide tolerance characteristics and medium to long-term yield performance. There is a review of regional NVT performance, time of sowing experiments and observed flowering dates in 2011. By combining agronomy research outcomes with other related wheat research this document provides current information to assist with variety choice and management for 2012.
