Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the non-dormant alfalfa group with a dormancy index of 9. Plants reach a height of 80–90 cm and are characterized by high productivity and rapid regrowth after mowing. The variety is adapted to various irrigation systems and demonstrates good tolerance to drought and temporary soil waterlogging.

The plant possesses exceptional resistance to Phytophthora and Fusarium, as well as high tolerance to stem and root nematodes. Due to its characteristics, the variety is a high-protein forage crop. Because of its low winter hardiness, it is suitable for cultivation only in regions without severe winters.
