What is alternative wheat and when is the optimal sowing time to maximise your profitability?

When the weather conditions are not optimal or the previous crop is harvested late, it may get too late for sowing winter wheat. Strube’s Alternative Wheat* offers a new option due to its exceptionally wide sowing window, from end of October to mid-April because it does not require vernalisation. Alternative Wheat combines the best properties of winter and spring wheat due to our unique crossing pedigree.
