GT-3688E Very, very high yielding line that covers a wide area. Its taller plant height is maintained even under stress, yet standability remains very good. You will also gain tolerance to phytophthora, Frog Eye and Stem Canker.

Key Strengths

  • Extreme yield potential
  • Good height even under stress
  • Multi-soil adaptation
  • Good disease tolerance

Management Tips

  • The bean you want when setting yield records
  • Doesn’t shrink under stress as much as other varieties
  • Good at stablishing a stand
  • Avoid bean on bean applications
