Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by selection for yield stability from the Adéla variety with subsequent propagation and mixing of selected progenies. The plant is characterized by a taproot system, small trifoliate leaves with a serrated edge, and white flowers in raceme inflorescences. Thousand kernel weight is 1.8–2.3 g.

The variety is annual and blooms in the year of sowing. It is undemanding to soils, grows effectively on low-fertility sites, but is sensitive to waterlogging and heavy soils. The green mass contains the alkaloid coumarin. It is used in forage production, beekeeping, and as a green manure to improve soil structure.
