An intensive short-stalked variety with enhanced adaptivity

11.7 tonnes/hectare (Kursk oblast, 2017)

Central Black Earth region

Mid‑maturing, short growing, with a plant height of 76‑85 cm. Very high drought resistance. Cold and winter hardiness is high, 64% plants survived at ‑16°С at the tillering node. Lodging resistance is high. The variety has high plasticity and delivers consistent yields in different agro‑climatic conditions

Early‑mid September

287–303 days for Kursk oblast conditions

Black fallow 3.5‑4 million/ha;
legumes 4‑4.5 million/ha;
Stubble left from previous crop 4.5‑5 million/ha

42.8 g

The variety is suitable for medium to rich soils. The best predecessors are black and green fallow, leguminous and early row crops.
The variety is suitable for fields with stubble. The highest response is elicited and the yield potential is unlocked under intensive technologies. Application of nitrogenous fertiliser in the amount of 80–100 kg/ha active substance is recommended

The variety is resistant to fusarium head blight, powdery mildew, stinking and loose smut, brown rust; moderately resistant to septoria spot.

Seed treatment with a fungicide and insecticide mixture. In intensive farming system, two fungicide treatments are required: during vegetation at the beginning of stem elongation stage (GS29‑31) and before flowering (GS59‑61). The number of insecticide treatments depends on the pest pressure
