Cornell's York Star wheat to go commercial this fall
Cornell announces York Star, a new white wheat developed at Ithaca, entering commercial production this fall. The variety yields 3 to 5 bushels more per acre than Genesee and Avon, with potential 60 to 75 bushels per acre under favorable conditions. It is 7 inches shorter, with better lodging resistance and improved milling quality, and is expected to become New York's leading wheat variety replacing Genesee and much of Avon.
