Barley Tur

Stable Spring Barley Yields: The Potential of the «Tur» Variety

Selecting spring barley seed material requires a balance between early maturity and resistance to unpredictable weather. The «Tur» variety from the selection and seed company «Agrokray» is positioned as a solution for farmers aiming for predictable results in intensive agriculture.

This variety belongs to spring crops and is adapted to the climatic zones of Ukraine. Its key feature lies in its plasticity: the barley demonstrates high survival rates during moisture deficits in critical development phases, which is essential for regions prone to spring and summer droughts.

Agronomic Advantages

• High tillering capacity, ensuring optimal density of the productive crop stand.
• Resistance to lodging, which minimizes losses during mechanized harvesting.
• Genetic tolerance to the most common cereal pathogens.

Compared to international hybrids, «Tur» shows superior adaptability to local soil and climatic conditions without requiring specific, prohibitively expensive protection programs. It is optimal for farms that follow traditional cultivation technologies but want to mitigate risks associated with weather stress.

Important Considerations

As an intensive variety, «Tur» realizes its full potential through proper crop rotation and timely application of mineral fertilizers. Maximum yields are achieved on fertile soils with optimal sowing times. While the variety possesses a strong immune system, neglecting fungicide protection during years with high humidity may reduce grain quality.

Who is this variety for? «Agrokray» developed «Tur» for agricultural enterprises seeking reliable seed material with high germination energy and stable grain test weight. It is a rational choice for those prioritizing proven breeding adapted to Ukrainian realities.
