Disease pressure can make or break forage performance.

In this video, Racey Padilla, plant breeder with TriCal Superior Forage, explains how diseases and viruses can impact small grain forage acres — and why genetics matter. When comparing barley, wheat, and triticale, Racey highlights a key advantage: TriCal triticale is bred for strong disease tolerance and resilient forage performance. While barley may show infection and wheat can lose much of its yield potential under pressure, triticale is built to keep performing. More forage. Better resilience. Genetics that work in real field conditions. #TriCalTriticale #ForageProduction #DiseaseTolerance #Silage #Agronomy #ForageCrops
