Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is suitable for grain, silage, and biogas production. The plant is characterized by a strong stem and belongs to the FAO 260–270 maturity group (medium-early or medium-late type). The grain is of the flint-dent type, starch content reaches 76%, and the thousand kernel weight varies from 230 to 390 g.

The plant is noted for high plasticity, cold tolerance, and drought tolerance. High initial growth energy allows for early sowing. The hybrid is characterized by lodging resistance and a pronounced "stay-green" effect, which favorably influences silage quality. Recommended seeding rates are 80–100 thousand plants per hectare.
