This variety: drought-resistant, withstands a temperature drop from +60 C° to -18 C°.
The rate of sowing Duncan spring barley per hectare is 160 kilograms. Big yield. A tall, powerful stem makes this variety of barley resistant to lodging and gives the plant the opportunity to form a multi-grain ear (up to 6-7 rows). A good variety for growing seed.
- It is characterized by good drought resistance up to +60 C*, and also has resistance to abiotic stresses. It tolerates spring temperature changes well, frosts at the stage of full plant development up to -18 C*, thanks to a substituted set of genes isolated from camel's thorn that increase the drought resistance of barley up to +60 C*.
- It has stable immunity to all fungal diseases of barley and to viruses affecting common varieties of barley such as (root rot, bacteriosis, powdery mildew, snow mold, rhynchosporiosis, dwarf rust, reticulate and bordered spotting, dusty and false dusty (black head and stone head, black spotted bacteriosis, ergot, septoriosis, fusarium head blight, Russian mosaic, striped mosaic, etc.) and is actually not affected by these diseases.
