Lodging — Sarepta mustard

Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.

Lodging in Sarepta mustard is a critical indicator of harvestability, directly affecting the magnitude of yield losses and the efficiency of direct combining.

In the reference 10 varieties crop Brown mustard, where this is mentioned in the description.

The evaluation of lodging resistance in mustard is conducted visually before harvest using a five-point scale. The process takes into account the type of damage, including root or stem lodging, as well as the nature of plant distribution in the field — uniform or local, with varying degrees of stem inclination.

The risk of lodging in this crop increases when cultivated in irrigated areas and also depends on agronomic factors such as seeding rates and nitrogen fertilization doses. Varieties with high lodging resistance possess better height uniformity and evenness of ripening, which ensures stable productivity.
