Central Black Soil region

A mid-maturing variety with a good tillering capacity. The plant is up to 95 cm high, the lodging resistance is 2.6–4.1 points. The drought tolerance is high. According to the data from the State Testing Plot, the test weight is from 445 up to 490 g/l at a low hull content of 26.9%. The kernel accumulates up to 14% of protein. The optimum stand density by harvest time is 450–500 heads/m².

Phosphorus-potassium fertilisers (40 — 60 kg/ha active substance) upon ploughing in autumn or when mulching in early spring.
Nitrogenous fertiliser in spring — a total of 60–80 kg/ha active substance when the yield exceeds 5.0 t/ha.

In the field, it was not affected by leaf diseases, so it can be sown after cereals in the crop rotation.

Seed treatment prior to sowing and application of the appropriate herbicides against dicotyledonous weeds is recommended everywhere. One fungicide treatment is appropriate only in case of high infection hazard in moist conditions. Insecticides need to be applied in case of high pest pressure.
