Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is mid-early, with a plant height of 75–80 cm. It belongs to the lutescens variety and forms awnless spikes. The wheat possesses high lodging resistance, good winter hardiness, and high drought tolerance, which allows it to be grown in various zones.

The variety demonstrates high resistance to Fusarium, brown rust, yellow rust, leaf septoria, and tan spot. The grain is characterized by a high protein content of 13.4 to 14.5% and gluten in the range of 27.9–30%, which ensures good milling and baking properties.
