Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is characterized by a low habitus with a plant height of about 138 cm, which facilitates the harvesting process. It has a developed root system, grows rapidly in the autumn period, and regrows intensively in the spring. Lodging resistance is rated as good provided optimal sowing density is maintained; resistance to major diseases, including phoma stem canker and black leg, is at the control level.

The oil content in seeds is 44.6–46.7%, and the thousand kernel weight ranges from 5.0 to 5.8 g. Product quality meets the requirements for low-erucic acid varieties, with an erucic acid content of about 0.06% and glucosinolates of about 16.5 µmol/g. The variety is intended for commercial grain production and is adapted to various cultivation zones.
