Rapeseed
I am translating a table comparing one cultivar/variety of rapeseed with others. The table lists crop yield, oil yield, resistance to funghi etc. I cannot think how to translate "Verrechnungssorte".

reference variety
... a somewhat vague idea in the sense of "Bezugssorte" (akin to "Bezugswerte" = "reference values").
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "Thanks. Think yours is better as it's not really a control - it's just to compare"

[grape seed] type for cost balancing
I would need a bit more context...Perhaps it is the type of seed that they are actually listing in their invoice, or it is a cheaper quality of grape seed that they throw in to offset some costs...but my guess is as good as yours...

variety
I think you kind of answered your question yourself.
Variety or cultivar seems to be an internationally recognised term for it.

Thanks Steffen - Verrechnung seems a strange word to use though

Für die Berechnung der Relativwerte wurde das Mittel der VRS als 100 % angenommen (Ertrag 100% = 51,66 dt/ha). Die APS-Einstufung wurde in Anlehnung an die VRS (Verrechnungssorten) vorgenommen. (VRS: Express, Talent, Elektra)
