Quality
grain: very high, belongs to the group of extra-strong wheat varieties (in some years, under favorable conditions of nutrition, the "strength" of flour reaches 500 EA). The overall rating of the bread is 5.0 points.
Approbation signs: a variety of erythrospermum. Plants with creeping or partially protruding leaves are in the tillering phase. The stem is level with the height of the plants, the ears droop a little, but do not droop. The ear is spindle-shaped, straw-yellow, of medium density. The spines are white, diverge to the sides, of medium density. Spikelet scales are ovoid with well-expressed nerves, medium in size. The keel reaches the base of the scales, jagged in the upper part. The keel tooth is short, straight, sharp. Straight shoulder of medium width. The grain is red, ovoid, of medium size. Mass of 1000 grains 37, -43.0 g.
Agrotechnical requirements: the variety is recommended for cultivation in intensive or generally accepted technologies. The variety is most suitable for growing food grains of high quality. On
nitrogen fertilizers positively reacts by increasing yield and grain quality. Sowing times are optimal for this zone, or slightly shifted towards late ones.
