Oats - Non-GMO
GR65 - Branded Quality Assured
- New white seeded oat well adapted in humid states where spring oats are grown and crown rust is not a problem
- highest yielding oat in 2015 OARDC (Wooster) trials
- good lodging resistance
- slightly taller and later in maturity than Ogle
- well-filled, white seed that averages 2-4 lbs/bu heavier test weight than Ogle
- Maturity of grain and straw adapted well for harvesting with a binder or combine
Armor - Ohio Certified
The Ohio State University, Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center released ARMOR, a productive spring oat cultivar for Ohio and surrounding states. Armor, is a high-yielding line, averaging 4 bu/A higher than Ogle in Ohio tests. The variety is similar to Ogle in appearance with excellent resistance to lodging. It is mid-season in maturity, being a day later than Ogle and 2 days earlier than Porter. Armor stands slightly taller than average when compared to Noble, Ogle and Porter. Armor has moderate resistance to the barley yellow dwarf virus.
- Released by The Ohio State University, OARDC
- similar to Ogle but with 4 bu/a higher yield in Ohio tests
- excellent resistance to lodging, moderate resistance to barley's yellow dwarf virus
- mid-season maturity
- U.S. Protected Variety, PVPA 1994

Saber - Ohio Certified
SABER – IL02-8658 – Saber is an early maturing high yielding oat variety developed by the University of Illinois Agricultural Experiment Station. Over the last two years Saber was placed in the top LSD group at 15 of 16 locations and was the highest yielding line numerically in 10 of 18 locations. The pedigree of Saber is Tack/Spurs. Saber is about two days earlier than Jay and has the same heading date as Don. It is about 4cm shorter than Chaps. The test weight of Saber is very good and has been about 1.4 lbs./bu. higher than Jay and about 2.2 lbs./bu. higher than Chaps. Saber is tolerant of BYDV with an average of 3.1 (0-9 scale where 0=very tolerant) compared to 4.5 for Jay and Chaps. Saber is susceptible to lose smut and is moderately resistant to moderately susceptible to crown rust. Saber has light yellow kernels with kernel color similar to Ogle, and the variant allowed is 0.5% talls. Saber will be released as a public variety. Seed stock will be maintained by the Agricultural Alumni Seed Improvement Association, Inc.
