Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the intensive type and shows the highest productivity under intensive cultivation technologies and on irrigated lands. The plants have an erectoid leaf arrangement and, under favorable conditions, are prone to tillering and the formation of a second ear.

The dent-type grain contains 72–74% starch and is characterized by rapid moisture loss during ripening. The hybrid is resistant to root and stalk lodging, and also possesses high drought tolerance and cold tolerance.

The plant shows tolerance to common smut, helminthosporiosis, and stalk and root rots. Due to its grain characteristics, the hybrid is suitable for use in the food industry.
