Galation

The winter barley hybrid Galation is a high-yielding variety developed using revolutionary Hyvido™ technology, ensuring stable high yields even under extreme weather conditions. The potential yield of this hybrid reaches 100-110 ц/ha, with plant tiller numbers ranging from 6 to 8. Galation is distinguished by high frost resistance and drought tolerance, making it suitable for cultivation in all soil-climatic zones of Ukraine. Its medium-early maturity allows for effective planning of agronomic activities.

The plants of this hybrid reach a height of 70-75 cm and exhibit vigorous growth in early development stages. Galation demonstrates high tillering capacity and resistance to various diseases and adverse factors: resistance to lodging, shattering, and false powdery mildew is rated at 8 points, to leaf spot diseases — 6 points, to brown rust — 4 points, and to rhiinosporyosis — 7 points. This comprehensive protection contributes to yield preservation and reduced losses during cultivation.

The hybrid exhibits high adaptability to various soil types, but prefers soils with high humus content, especially following typical preceding crops. Sowing is recommended 10-15 days earlier than conventional varieties, promoting better rooting and plant development. Galation fully utilizes applied mineral fertilizers, enabling agronomic optimization and enhanced production efficiency. Protective measures are selected based on crop condition assessments, ensuring maximum productivity and quality of the harvest.
