Norwest Duet is an Oregon State University-Limagrain Cereal Seeds collaborative wheat variety. With good winter-hardiness and a taller plant type, Norwest Duet is intended for intermediate-to-low rainfall production. However, the soft white winter wheat’s excellent straw strength means growers can count on Norwest Duet to have excellent performance on the fringe of rainfall zones as well.
