Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is classified as sweet sorghum and is used as a raw material for bioethanol production from bagasse, as well as for sugar, syrup, and fodder purposes. It accumulates a significant amount of sugars in the stems, which distinguishes it from grain and fiber varieties.

The plant possesses high drought tolerance due to a developed root system and water-use efficiency. The variety often serves as a model object in scientific research dedicated to plant physiology, water-use efficiency, and phytoremediation of contaminated soils.
