UI Magic CL+ is the most widely grown soft white winter wheat Clearfield

in the Pacific Northwest. Magic is one of three 2-gene IMI SWWW varieties

released by the University of Idaho. The top-end yield potential of UI

Magic CL+ continues to create an increasing demand for seed each year

across the region. With excellent test weight and a shorter overall plant

height, it’s not hard to see why this variety has achieved such a dominant

position in such a short amount of time.

• Provides broad-spectrum grass and broadleaf weed

control, resulting in cleaner fields and greater yields

• Reduces dockage/grain discounts caused by weed

seed in harvested grain

• Allows for split application of herbicide

Calculating wheat qualityThe LCS Quality Laboratory utilizes a comprehensive set of data, compiled

over multiple years, to determine the end-use quality of wheat varieties we

release. The quality tests described on the next page are performed in our

lab to determine the scores assigned by our Quality Manager. Overall end-

use quality is classified in our technical literature in one of four categories:

Most Desirable, Desirable, Acceptable, Less Desirable.

Most Desirable. Varieties typically have a superior combination of milling,

baking and dough properties — with excellent intrinsic (kernel) properties,

including high test weight and appropriate levels of protein; elite varieties.

Desirable. Milling, baking and dough properties of these varieties range

from good to very good. While not considered elite, these varieties have

strong intrinsic qualities and are in high demand from end users.

Acceptable. Milling, baking and dough properties of these varieties range

from acceptable to good. One or more quality parameters may have minor

flaws. Overall, these varieties are acceptable to end users.

Less Desirable. Varieties in this category exhibit one or more key quality

parameters that are less than adequate for current end user standards.

A single critical flaw can also warrant a rating at this level.

Hayley Butler } Quality Manager

Hayley evaluates milling and baking quality for LCS. She has served as the chair for the AACC PNW section, is active in all U.S. wheat quality councils and is on multiple wheat quality improvement teams in the United States and Canada. She is passionate about science.

Superior seed / premium productsOverall end-use qualityTo obtain a comprehensive score for end-use quality, the LCS Quality Lab measures several key attributes over multiple years for all varieties introduced in the marketplace. These characteristics are weighted and combined into a single score: baking quality (30%), dough properties (20%), milling quality (40%), test weight (5%) and flour protein (5%).

Baking qualityLoaf volume and cookie diameter are key attributes in measuring baking quality. Dough is related to baking in the same way yield is related to profit. Measuring dough rheology, or the strength of dough when water and energy are added, is accomplished using several industry-approved methods: mixograph, farinograph, extensograph or alveograph.

Milling qualityAll wheat varieties yield di�erent quantities of flour. Higher flour yields equate directly to increased profitability for commercial milling companies. The LCS Quality Lab is able to determine protein loss from grain to flour, which helps millers meet the flour protein specifications of their customers.

Flour proteinWheat and flour purchasers apply discounts when protein specifications are not met. Water absorption and gluten strength a�ect the production costs of end users, and both are related to the percentage of protein content. Common methods for testing protein are near-infrared reflectance (NIR) and combustion nitrogen analysis (CNA).

Technical resourcesTo obtain the most accurate technical data possible, all available public and

private multi-year data are used to compile agronomic, disease and yield

scores. Quality data are obtained from the LCS Quality Laboratory. The

results presented in this guide may not be an indicator of results you may

obtain in your individual location, as local growing conditions — including

soil type and weather — may vary. All growers are advised to evaluate data

from multiple locations and years whenever possible.
