Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is classified as early-maturing, characterized by a semi-erect growth habit, leaves of medium length and width, as well as green stems. The variety is hexaploid.

The plant possesses high winter hardiness and tolerance to low temperatures and icing, however, it has low drought resistance and tolerates moisture deficit poorly.

The variety provides high forage quality due to thin stems and a high leaf-to-stem ratio, and possesses good palatability. It is used for establishing pastures, harvesting silage, and high-quality hay for horses; it is recommended for pure stands and mixtures with legumes.
