In a joint research program the Embrapa-Centro de Pesquisa Agropecuária dos Cerrados (CPAC), the Embrapa-Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Trigo (CNPT), the Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária de Minas Gerais (Epamig), the Empresa Goiana de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Emgopa, todays Emater-GO), and the Cooperativa Agropecuária Mista do Programa de Assentamento Dirigido do Alto Paranaíba (Coopadap-MG), released a new cultivar – EMBRAPA 22 – indicated for areas with splinkler irrigation in the States of Goiás and Minas Gerais, and Federal District. Recently this cultivar was recomended for Bahia and Mato Grosso States. EMBRAPA 22 is originated from crossings carried out in the International Center for Corn and Wheat Breeding (CIMMYT), Mexico. It was introduced in Brazil through line colections and was identified in the trials of the Central Brazil research network as line CPAC 841153. The cultivar has higher qualities for the bread industry; has low grain shattering, it is resistant to stem rust and leaf rust under field conditions, and shows medium tolerance to lodging. In several trials, in different places and years, the yield of EMBRAPA 22 was 6% higher than the cultivar control Anahuac in Goiás and Federal District and 4% higher in Minas Gerais State.
