Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the late maturity group and is characterized by medium-length straw. Depending on the cultivation region and variety modification, it demonstrates medium to high stem strength, which allows for the use of intensive cultivation technologies.

The grain of the variety is distinguished by high test weight, good protein content, and high falling number values. In Canada, the variety is classified as a special purpose wheat, suitable for feed purposes and ethanol production.

The plant possesses good resistance to fungal diseases, including high resistance to powdery mildew and medium resistance to rust and Septoria. The variety is resistant to damage by the orange wheat blossom midge due to the SM1 gene and possesses increased resistance to the wheat stem sawfly.
