Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the subspecies Medicago sativa subsp. sativa and is a historical sample often used in agronomic trials as a control for comparing the breeding performance of new varieties. The crop is used in agriculture as a forage plant.

In comparative trials, the variety demonstrates stable indicators of green mass productivity and seed yield. Despite its long history of use as a standard, specific morphological characteristics of the plant, such as height or exact disease resistance scores, are not established as fixed agronomic norms in open scientific publications.
