KWS Arine

Group 2 Winter Wheat
(KWS Zyatt x KWS Extase)

  • Exceptional yield performance, especially in the east (106%) and west (108%)
  • Outstanding disease resistances including 7 for Septoria
  • Best performing bread making variety in the second and more slot

New on the AHDB recommended list for drilling 2025 is KWS Arnie – the all-round wheat for growers looking for a strong variety to add some muscle to their grain heap this autumn.  

A UKFM Group 2, KWS Arnie elevates the yield potential of this market sector offering UK yields 4% above those of KWS Extase, with exceptional performances in the main wheat growing regions fo the AHDB East (106%) and West (108%).  But the advantages of this variety don’t stop at yield.  

KWS Arnie has an impressive set of disease resistance scores which include a 7.0 for Septoria along with good yellow rust (7) and better eyespot ([5]) than its KWS Extase stablemate.   

But it’s Arnie’s sturdy plant type that will really appeal to many UK growers – It’s a fast developer in the autumn with the ability to tiller strongly, leading to a good plant stand as crops head through the spring.  In addition, KWS Arnie has super stiff straw, with only 2% lodging recorded with and without PGR over the past 2 contrasting seasons. 

So looking to bolster your wheat production in autumn 2025, then look no further than...KWS Arnie – serious muscle for the job!
