Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is tetraploid and belongs to the Westerwold type. It is characterized by a late heading date, which allows for the longer preservation of green mass quality during the spring period. The plant possesses high nutritional value and good palatability.

The variety is intended for livestock grazing, as well as for hay and silage harvesting. During the breeding process, special attention was paid to the development of initial growth vigor and productivity during the winter period, as well as increasing resistance to rust.
