Seeds buckwheat for sowing: Antaria, Volya, Sofia, Dykul - varieties with scientifically proven productivity and adaptability

I offer elite buckwheat seeds (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) varieties Antaria, Volya, Sofia, Dykul. The agrobiological characteristics of the varieties are confirmed by the data of the state variety study and scientific research in the field of breeding and seed production.

Agrobiological characteristics of varieties:
1. "Antaria" variety
(Selection: Polyssia Institute of Agriculture of the National Academy of Sciences)
Morphobiological signs:

A plant of a determinative type, height 85–95 cm.

The leaves are heart-shaped, with anthocyanin-colored stems.

Vegetation period: 75–80 days (medium ripe).

Economically valuable properties (according to state test data):

Average yield: 1.8–2.2 t/ha on sod-podzolic soils.

Core yield: 72–74% (methodology of VNDIZBK, 2019).

Adaptability: coefficient of ecological plasticity (S²) = 0.12.

Agrotechnical recommendations:

Sowing rate: 3.0–3.5 million seed units/ha.

Sensitive to bentazone-based herbicides — treatment only in the 2-3 leaf phase.

2. "Volya" variety
(Selection: Lviv Institute of Agricultural Production)
Morphobiological signs:

Plant of indeterminate type, height 100–110 cm.

The flowers are white, collected in tassel-like inflorescences.

Maturity group: medium late (85–90 days).

Productivity (according to the protocols of the 2020–2022 State Sorting Study):

Productivity in the Polissya zone: 2.0–2.4 t/ha.

Weight of 1000 grains: 28–30 g.

Resistance: tolerant to Botrytis cinerea (gray rot).

Technological features:

Stand density: 1.8–2.2 million plants/ha.

Responds to the application of boron and molybdenum (increase in fertilization by 18–22%).

3. "Sofia" variety
(Selection: Institute of plant breeding named after V.Ya. Yuryev)(//tractor-service.com)
Morphobiological signs:

The bush is compact, height 70–80 cm.

Grain large, three-sided, dark brown color.

Vegetation period: 70–75 days (early ripening).

Economically valuable traits (according to the "Register of Varieties of Ukraine"):

Potential yield: up to 2.5 t/ha (on black soils).

Rutin content: 4.2–4.8% (HPLC method).

Drought resistance: 7.5 points on a 9-point scale.

Agroecological recommendations:

Sowing rate: 2.5–3.0 million inhabitants/ha.

Optimal soil pH: 5.5–6.5.

4. "Dykul" variety
(Selection: VNII of Leguminous and Cereal Crops)
Morphobiological signs:

The plant is tall (115–125 cm), with a powerful stem.

Leaves with a wax coating.

Ripening period: 90–95 days (late ripening).

Economic indicators (scientific publications, 2021–2023):

Productivity in the Steppe: 1.6–1.9 t/ha.

Cereal yield: 70–72%.

Resistance: resistant to downy mildew (Peronospora fagopyri).

Agrotechnological requirements:

Density: 1.5–1.8 million plants/ha.

Application of phosphorus-potassium fertilizers before sowing increases the weight of 1,000 grains by 8–10%.

Technical parameters of seeds:
Category: corresponds to DSTU 4138-2002

Similarity: 92–94% (laboratory control).

Germination energy: 88–90%.

Documentation: quality certificate, phytosanitary certificate.

The specified varieties are recommended for cultivation taking into account the zonal features of the agricultural background. Agronomic parameters are confirmed by experimental data of research institutions.
