Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is classified as early-flowering and possesses a well-developed root system that contributes to improving soil structure. Compared to sorghum-sudangrass hybrids, it is characterized by a smaller leaf area and a lower total biomass volume.

The plant possesses pronounced nematicidal properties, suppressing root-knot nematodes when incorporated into the soil. Due to its reduced potential for hydrocyanic acid accumulation, the variety is considered preferable for livestock grazing.

Used as a forage crop for haymaking, green fodder harvesting, and grazing, as well as a cover crop for improving soil fertility and pest control in crop rotations.
