The Western Australia Department of Agriculture has produced its recently released eVariety Profiler to CD, after many growers experienced difficulties downloading large files off the Internet.

Department regional manager Peter King said 1000 CDs have been made of the eVariety Profilers that allows growers to easily compare 55 wheat varieties.

The Profiler is available from the Department website or free of charge in CD format from District Offices.

"The Profiler can be used by growers and consultants to assist in making decisions prior to harvest regarding which varieties to retain or acquire for the next season," Mr King said.

"The e-Variety Profiler is only available for wheat, however information on other crops varieties will soon be available in the electronic format."

This project is partly funded by the Grains Research and Development Corporation.
