Crop sowing guides

The National Variety Trials (NVT) Crop Sowing Guides summarise information on current commercially available varieties of grain crops grown in Australia. Sources of additional information are listed in each state edition and chapter.

Updated every year with new results from the NVT program, the guides aim to help growers answer the question: ‘Am I growing the best variety for my situation?’.
