Fridge vs. 813 Triticale: Which Variety Fits Your Operation

0:02 [Music]

0:07 We most often use I'm standing in what's called fridge. Fridge is kind of an older variety, it's been around long.

0:17 Long time, lots of people have used it. It is an unleaded type, so it does have short ons, but there they typically aren't going to.

0:26 Be an issue for either hain or grazing, so it's okay to use for that. And then where Dale is standing is a newer one that we've been using called 8:13 and.

0:35 You don't see a whole lot of difference here but when we had these in our plots in Oklahoma when Brett had those plots, they don't tell them what you saw on.

0:45 Those plots down there we went down to the plots and in the fall it was absolutely dramatic how much more full growth the 8:13 had compared to the.

0:58 Fridge it was amazing and seemed to be more interactive, more fall active, more winter active, and I think one other thing that it looks to me like obviously.

1:12 The fridge is a little taller than the 813 right now. You also see it's also a little farther along. Yeah, this has got a little more punch, a little longer.

1:35 About taking it too far north because of winter hardiness, but it certainly has done great here this year. This is the second year we've had it and fine last.

1:43 Year, so you know fridges is a good fit, 813, especially if you're going south. I would say if you're planning earlier, it's gonna be better because like.

1:54 Dale said more fall growth. These weren't planted and talked over 17th so we just didn't have a lot of time for fall growth, which may be one of.

2:02 The reasons we're not seeing a big difference.
