Sorcerer is leaf rust resistant to most known leaf rust pathotypes, reducing the need for fungicide use.
New pathotypes may develop over time, reducing Sorcerer's leaf rust resistance.
Sorcerer has excellent speed to first grazing, similar to Genie, while also maintaining yield throughout the season to provide significantly higher yield in a full season than other forage oat varieties.
Sorcerer has a semi-erect growth habit, medium plant height, high tillering, medium thickness leaves and stems which allows for excellent recovery from grazing and cutting.
With normal planting time (March–April), Sorcerer has medium/late plant maturity which is later than Genie but earlier than Warlock. Sorcerer has very good tolerance to high soil temperatures at the time of sowing allowing for early opportunistic planting.
Sorcerer offers growers a complete package of high yield potential, medium/late maturity with excellent recovery in the winter months. Sorcerer is resistant to all current pathotypes of leaf rust.
