Grain quality. Weight of 1000 grains up to 50 g. Nature of grain 781 g/l, vitreousness 97%, raw gluten content up to 33%, protein - up to 16.2%. Overall quality ratingpasta 4.2 points.

Approbation signs. A variety of gordeiforme. Medium height (108–113 cm). The ear is cylindrical, short (5.0–6.5 cm), dense (27–28 ears per 10 cm of the length of the rod). The spikes are long (14–15 cm), elastic, strongly serrated, diverge at an angle of 20° in the middle part of the ear. Spikelet scales are medium, elongated, with medium nerves. The tooth is short, slightly bent. The shoulder is narrow, raised. The keel is narrow, weakly toothed, strongly exposed towards the middle of the scales. The grain is medium, semi-elongated.

Agrotechnical requirements.  Semi-intensive variety. Demanding to growing conditions. The best predecessors are perennial and annual leguminous grasses, leguminous-cereal mixtures, peas, soybeans, sugar beets (except in very dry years),corn for green fodder and silage, potatoes. Sowing dates are early. The sowing rate is 6 million similar grains per 1 ha, up to 7 million according to worse predecessors. Sow with calibrated, poisoned seeds of high reproduction to a depth of 3–5 cm, in case of rapid drying of the top layer of soil, 4–6 cm is allowed. After sowing, rolling is carried out . The variety makes good use of the after-effect of fertilizers applied under its predecessor. The main mineral fertilizer is N60P60K60. At the end of the tillering phase, under optimal water regime conditions, N30 is applied or foliar fertilization with water-soluble fertilizers is carried out in combination with crop treatment with herbicide. In areas with insufficient rainfall, complete mineral fertilizer is applied under the main tillage or pre-sowing cultivation.
