Oats
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

Esker - Ohio Certified
ESKER 2020 is a high yielding grain oat produced by the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Esker 2020 is a high yielding oat line with performance in the top 10% for yield in the Midwest. It has a medium to high test weight and was in the top 20% for TW in the WI State trials with a 3-year average above 38 lbs/bu. Esker 2020 has an intermediate flowering time with a heading date similar to Esker and Horsepower. Esker 2020 has an average height of 40 inches. It is highly resistant to crown rust and showed low crown rust infection in most trials. Esker 2020 is most similar to the previously existing cultivar Esker with similar lodging and plant characteristics such as dehulling efficiency. Esker is a PVP licensed 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.
