The Power of KWS Hybrid Rye KWS Hybrid Rye is a versatile, fall-seeded crop built for resilience and flexibility — delivering high performance across grain, forage, and cover uses. Highest yielding cereal for grain and forage • 20% more grain yield than winter wheat & barley • 30–40% more grain yield than spring wheat • 10–15% more forage tonnage than other cereal crops Lower input requirement versus wheat • 20% less N than other cereal crops • 25% less water than other cereal crops Massive allelopathic root system • Scavenges nitrogen and water from the soil • Provides competition against weeds and reduces pesticide applications • Provides drought resistance • Breaks up hardpan and improves soil tilth Diversifies crop rotation • Improves workload management due to different planting and harvest dates • Protects valuable farmland from erosion in late fall, winter and early spring • Breaks up pest cycles Provides flexible end-use market opportunities • Can be harvested as grain for livestock feed, milling, distilling, ethanol, and cover crop markets • Can be harvested as forage for livestock feed • Earliest maturing cereal forage, providing an opportunity to double crop in southern geographies • Can be grazed in the fall and/or spring if pasture is needed

Protect Your Yield with KWS PollenPLUS™ – Advanced Defense Against

“In the past few years, we’ve been

Ergot in Hybrid Rye

seeing a decrease in ergot not only due to more sustainable farming

Increased Pollen Production • As demonstrated in the June 2024 photo above, KWS varieties exhibit a significantly increased capacity for pollen shedding during pollination. Ergot Reduction • Rapid and complete pollination results in a shorter period of ergot exposure. Higher Yield • More complete pollination reduces ergot infection, resulting in more grain kernels per head. Improved Crop Quality • More complete pollination reduces ergot infection, resulting in better grain quality and decreased dockage.

practices and favorable recent weather but also the uptake of KWS Hybrid Rye varieties compared to open-pollinated ones. When I first started grading, it wasn’t unusual to consistently be cleaning 0.2% or higher ergot throughout the year. As more of our producers have started using KWS hybrid varieties, we are now seeing levels closer to 0.1% on average and anything higher requires additional planning. This makes it easier on the color sorter and means fewer discounts to the producer.”

Expanded Market Access • Superior grain quality allows access to all end use markets such as food, feed, and

Maximizing Ergot Protection with KWS Hybrid Rye KWS Hybrid Rye is the only hybrid on the market with advanced ergot protection, making it ideal for livestock feeding and specialty markets. KWS PollenPlus™ varieties, when combined with our recommended RyeGHT Seeding Practices, significantly reduce the risk of ergot infection when compared to other rye varieties on the market. Field Management • Ergot lives in soil. Proper crop rotation should be used to break the cycle. • Follow KWS RyeGHT Seeding Practices for optimal field management. • Field edges are more susceptible to ergot. Harvest the inside first and store separately if higher levels are seen around edges to reduce contamination. • Highly susceptible areas on farm can be harvested as forage prior to firm dough stage. • If your field edge is surrounded by wild grasses or excessive weeds, mow before pollination begins. Feeding Management • Low levels of ergot can be fed to certain groups of livestock. • Test all grains for mycotoxins including DON and ergot before feeding. • Dilute mycotoxin-contaminated grain with other grains based on measured levels. • Work with your nutritionist to determine safe feeding levels for your herd. Levels will vary depending on species, stage of production. • If necessary, ergot can be cleaned from grain before feeding to livestock.

KWS varieties with best-in-class ergot protection are well-suited in livestock feed! • KWS Trebiano • KWS Serafino • KWS Receptor • KWS Attainor

End-Use Markets


Feed Market KWS Hybrid Rye grain is increasingly used in animal feed, particularly for swine and cattle. Its high digestibility and nutritional profile make it an excellent choice for livestock diets. Feeding hybrid rye to livestock improves animal health and welfare while maintaining performance.

Swine Feeding Recommendations KWS Hybrid Rye can be incorporated into most stages of swine production. In the nursery phase, it can be introduced in phase 2 at a rate of 5–7%. Gradually increase the inclusion rate to 30% by the end of the nursery period. During the grower phase, Hybrid Rye can be increased in each phase, reaching a maximum of 70% inclusion in the finisher phases. For sows, Hybrid Rye provides an ideal fiber profile and can be fed at an inclusion rate of 25–50% to maximize feed efficiency, milk yield, and litter performance.

Beef Cattle Feeding Recommendations KWS Hybrid Rye can be included in backgrounding diets for beef cattle at a rate of 6–15% to achieve maximum growth performance. During the finishing period, the inclusion rate can be increased to 20-40% in the ration to optimize feed efficiency.

Forage Market KWS Hybrid Rye can be used as forage for livestock. It offers high yield and nutritional value, making it an excellent choice for silage and other forage applications.

Hybrid Rye Forage for Cattle KWS Hybrid Rye is a fall seeded, winter-hardy crop that boasts excellent nutritional value and flexibility in forage feeding systems.

Beef Cattle Testimonial “Hybrid Fall Rye gives us high-quality forage early, plus a second cash or greenfed crop opportunity”

Higher forage yields in large scale field operations, with a greater advantage after Harsh winters.

Jordan Kolk | Kolk Farms Ltd.

• 10–20% more tonnage than non-hybrid rye, barley, wheat and oats. • 0–15% more tonnage than triticale. Early Harvest Advantage: • 9–10 days earlier maturity vs. fall triticale and winter wheat for early cut. • 6–8 days earlier maturity vs. fall triticale and winter wheat for late cut. • 20–35 days earlier maturity vs. spring cereals for late cut.

Early pollination and KWS PollenPLUS™ technology means that KWS Hybrid Rye is less susceptible to fusarium and ergot contamination compared to conventional rye and other cereal grains. It is always best practice to test your feed grains for mycotoxins before use. If mycotoxins are present work with your nutritionist or KWS to manage feeding levels, especially in your breeding herd.
