Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to late-maturing types, ripening a week later than many standard varieties, which allows plants to maintain a vegetative state for longer. Athos possesses good resistance to diseases, tolerance to drought, and high winter hardiness.

The plant is intended for forage purposes, including the establishment of hayfields, silage production, and livestock grazing. The variety is distinguished by good regrowth in the autumn period, which ensures even distribution of yield throughout the entire season.

High productivity and leaf softness make this variety suitable for use in mixed sowings with alfalfa, as the mowing maturity phases of these crops coincide.
