Euclydes Minella, Marcio So e Silva, Gerardo Arias, and Aroldo Gallon Linhares
BRS Borema is an early maturing, two-rowed spring barley registered in 2003 for commercial production in Southern Brazil, bred by Embrapa Trigo. It combines good yield potential with superior malting quality and a reasonable level of disease (net blotch, powdery mildew, leaf rust) resistance. It is well-adapted to all major production regions of malting barley in Brazil.
