AP Redeye

Overview

AP Redeye is a hard red winter wheat bred and developed by Syngenta Participations AG. AP Redeye was selected for height, maturity, appearance, kernel color, kernel soundness, disease reaction, and end use quality that originated with a single cross made in January of 2005. Area of adaptation and primary use of variety:  AP Redeye is primarily adapted to irrigated and intermediate to high rainfall areas of Washington, North and Western Idaho.
