An intensive type hybrid. Combines high drought tolerance with high yield potential
in favorable conditions. When treating plants during vegetation with microelements, it makes
high weight of 1000 seeds

The Steppe direction hybrid combines high yields with drought and heat resistance. It has a genetic resistance to 7 races of Orobance (A-G). The hybrid is ecologically flexible for yield in all zones of the Steppe and Forest-steppe Ukraine. Well responds to the introduction of mineral fertilizers in sowing and trace elements on a leafy surface. The shape of the head of the hybrid gives the ability to form an increased number of seeds.

The hybrid is suitable for growing on the technology of fieldless plowing and minimal tillage (the system “mini-till” and “no-till”). Possesses high resistance to damage by rust, gray and white rot, phomopsis. Has a high stability of the stem breaking, due to reduced plant height. This makes it possible to use an increased rate of nitrogen and other mineral fertilizers and to qualitatively grind the vegetative mass for further sowing of winter crops.

The optimum plant density during the vegetation period is 50-55 thousand per hectare. The optimal seeding time is early. The most recent planting season in the eastern regions and in the south is May 20.
