  • High yield potential across multiple sowing windows
  • Proven performer in winter sown ‘catch crop’ trials under difficult conditions

Agricom’s latest release oat has been selected as a fast starting, high yielding early to medium maturity type. Maturing slightly later than Milton oats, gives farmers more flexibility in terms of grazing and green chop cereal silage timing. Agricom has been evaluating Crowa for over three years across a wide range of climatic zones and farm systems to ensure it has the versatility and flexibility to perform to meet growers expectations. Crowa is faster to mature than Coronet oats, providing fast feed early. Crowa's tolerance to rust is very good.
