Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the mid-early maturity group with a vegetation period from 100 to 110 days. The plants are characterized by intensive branching, high winter hardiness, and lodging resistance. Genetically fixed pod shattering resistance allows for minimizing harvest losses.

The variety possesses high resistance to phoma stem canker due to the presence of the LepR1 gene and to light leaf spot, as well as high tolerance to turnip yellows virus. Resistance to alternaria and verticillium wilt is medium. The produce is distinguished by high oil content and low glucosinolate levels with a yield potential of 60–70 c/ha.
