Description

Majesko, a bearded variety with an exceptional disease profile, featuring first-class resistance to Septoria leaf blotch, yellow rust and brown rust. The winter to semi-winter alternative habit and late tillering make this variety particularly suitable for early sowing. With very good tillering ability, Majesko is a safe choice that combines disease security with flexibility in farm management.
