Barley ENDAN

ENDAN is a spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) variety characterized by medium maturity and medium height. The vegetative period ranges from 80 to 98 days, allowing for effective use in various agro-climatic conditions. The variety is distinguished by high drought resistance, confirmed by studies conducted under drought year conditions where grain formed to be larger. The mass of 1000 grains varies within 34-64 grams, indicating good seed material quality. ENDAN belongs to the submalt variety type and is mainly intended for grain-forage use.

The variety is recommended for cultivation in the Volgograd-Vyatsky and Central Volga Federal Districts, as well as Sverdlovsk Oblast and the Republic of Tatarstan. Despite high drought resistance, ENDAN is highly susceptible to root rots and powdery head smut, requiring careful plant protection and adherence to agrotechnical measures. Compared to other varieties of domestic and foreign breeding, ENDAN demonstrates stable grain mass indicators and resistance to unfavorable conditions.

Seed quality studies confirm its high germination and germination energy, ensuring good yield and seed material quality. ENDAN is a promising choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality barley harvest under variable climate and limited moisture conditions.
