Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was created to solve the problem of adapting imported Andean varieties to the local photoperiod. It is intended for use in the food industry as a gluten-free product, as well as for the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical sectors.

The plant belongs to the early-maturing group and possesses high tolerance to drought, which allows for cultivation on non-irrigated land. Breeding was directed at ensuring complete maturation, which simplifies post-harvest processing, cleaning, and the removal of saponins.

Morphologically, the variety is distinguished by pronounced characteristics of yield formation, including an increase in panicle length and the number of branches under favorable growing conditions.
