The spring barley variety «Chepeleva Memorial» is a mid-maturity, dwarf barley developed by individual selection from a hybrid population. It matures in 71-81 days and is distinguished by its high 1000-grain weight, ranging from 40 to 51 grams. This variety is valued for its high grain quality and resistance to various biotic and abiotic stresses, ensuring stable yields under different climatic conditions.
«Chepeleva Memorial» was developed by the Ural Federal Agroscientific Research Center and successfully passed state trials, particularly in the Volga-Vyatka region, where it achieved a yield of 43.7 centners per hectare. Based on the trial results, it significantly outperforms standard varieties such as Acha and Sonet, confirming its potential for widespread cultivation.
The variety exhibits moderate resistance to striped smut and root rots, enhancing its reliability during cultivation. Due to these characteristics and adaptation to various regions, including Central, Volga-Vyatka, Middle Volga, Ural, and West Siberia, «Chepeleva Memorial» has become one of the leaders in sown areas in Russia, demonstrating its popularity among agricultural producers.
