flour 228 a.a., bread volume 635 cm3. Valuable wheat.
Approbation signs. A variety of lutescens. Medium-sized (95 cm). The bush is semi-erect. Wax coating of medium intensity. The spike is cylindrical, dense, 10.0–10.5 cm long. The spike scale is medium, oval, the nerves are revealed, the shoulder is narrow, straight. The tooth is short, slightly bent. The grain is large, egg-shaped, red, the base is pubescent, the groove is shallow.
Agrotechnical requirements. A variety of intensive type. Steppe ecotype. Can be grown under irrigation. The genetic potential of yield and quality of grain is most fully realized on high agro backgrounds with intensive cultivation technology. The sowing period is optimally late, but the yield does not decrease significantly even in normal periods. The optimal sowing rate is 4.5–5.0 million similar seeds per hectare, depending on the predecessor, soil condition and sowing time. Well covers costs when using trace elements. When the rate of fertilizers is increased, due to the strong stem, it does not fall out.
