Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to spring forms of faba bean and is used in the scientific community as a reference genetic material. It possesses a reduced level of anti-nutritional factors — tannins, vicine, and convicine, which increases the nutritional value of the grain for feed production.

The plant exhibits resistance to the root rot pathogen Aphanomyces euteiches. The variety is also used in research as a standard for evaluating water use efficiency during the growing season.
