*Variety maturity is rated specifically for the Delta region relative to other varieties. Later maturing varieties are more likely to avoid spring freeze damage and thus are generally better suited to northernmost regions, particularly if wheat is planted early in the fall. Early-maturing varieties are best suited for relatively late planting dates.

**Varieties Adapted for South Mississippi**
Variety	Maturity*	Straw Strength	Height	Awned Heads
GoWheat 2058	late	high	short	yes
AGS 2055	medium	high	medium-tall	yes
Pioneer 26R41	late	high	short	yes
Dyna-Gro 9811	medium	high	medium-tall	yes
Progeny #BUSTER	late	medium-high	medium	yes
Progeny #CHAD	medium-early	low	short	no
Dyna-Gro 9172	late	high	medium	yes
Delta Grow 3500	early	medium	medium-tall	yes
AgriMAXX 473	very late	medium-high	tall	yes
Delta Grow 1000	very late	medium-high	tall	yes
Dyna-Gro 9701	very late	medium-high	tall	yes
Progeny #BULLET	very late	medium-high	tall	yes
Progeny #TURBO	medium-early	medium	medium	no

*Variety maturity is rated specifically for South Mississippi relative to other varieties. Earlier maturing varieties are generally best suited for southernmost areas. Later maturing varieties generally have marginal adaptation in southern regions and may not yield well, or may fail to meet vernalization requirements (cold temperatures) to stimulate reproductive development, particularly if wheat is planted late in the fall.
