How recommendations work

Each variety is tagged with the regions, rainfall bands and planting windows where it performed consistently across at least three seasons of multi-location trials.

Reading maturity length

Days to physiological maturity. Shorter cycles escape late-season dry spells; longer cycles convert more rainfall into yield where the season is reliable.
