Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was bred through selection to ensure adaptation to local conditions. It belongs to the early-maturing group, with flowering occurring approximately 11 days earlier than the Estanzuela Tacuabé variety. The plant is characterized by rapid development after sowing and early onset of vegetation in the spring period.

The plants maintain productivity and quality of flexible leaves until the beginning of summer, providing a forage base throughout the year. The variety possesses high adaptability to various soils and good resistance to external conditions.

The inclusion of the beneficial MaxP endophyte in the plant provides protection against insect pests and increased tolerance to drought. This symbiont contributes to the longevity of the stand and does not produce alkaloids toxic to animals.
