DAGESTAN GOLD

Daghestan Gold is a medium-ripening winter barley variety (Hordeum vulgare L.) primarily intended for grain-forage use. The plant features a semi-erect medium-height bush, belongs to the nautens variety type, and has a 1000-grain mass ranging from 43-51 grams. The variety is characterized by high protein content in the grain, varying from 11.7% to 14.8%, making it valuable for flour, porridge, and other food product production.

This barley exhibits good resistance to lodging and winter hardiness at standard levels, ensuring crop stability under various climatic conditions. The variety is recommended for cultivation in the North Caucasus region, including the Republic of Dagestan and Stavropol Krai, where it adapts well and demonstrates high yield. The plant is multi-rowed and two-handled, contributing to the formation of high-quality grain.

Daghestan Gold is distinguished by high resistance to powdery mildew, loose smut, and covered smut, although it is susceptible to covered smut and moderately susceptible to helminthosporium and septoria. Seed treatment is recommended for crop protection. Thanks to its agronomic characteristics and grain quality, this variety is a reliable choice for farmers focused on producing high-quality grain and food products.
