Apollo

Apollo soybean variety is an early-maturing and high-yielding variety with a short vegetation period of 80 to 110 days. This variety is characterized by high cold and drought tolerance, allowing successful cultivation in various climatic conditions, including Steppe, Forest Steppe, and Polесья regions. Due to its rapid development after emergence and active vegetative mass accumulation, Apollo is resistant to hot and dry weather, which is especially important for arid areas. Plant height varies from 75 to 110 cm, and lower pods attach at a height of 12-16 cm, facilitating harvest.

One of the key advantages of the Apollo variety is its tolerance to herbicides, including Roundup analogs, allowing effective weed control without harming the crop. The variety also exhibits high resistance to diseases and pests, and its strong stem ensures resistance to lodging. The thousand-seed mass ranges from 130 to 180 grams, and the crude protein content in the grain reaches 38.9-41.3%, making this variety attractive for producing high-quality protein.

The potential yield of the Apollo variety reaches 49.8 centners per hectare, while actual yields typically range from 25 to 37 centners per hectare. The variety is suitable for cultivation using both traditional and no-till methods. High grain quality and stable yields even under temperature fluctuations and herbicide control make Apollo a reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve high-quality soybean harvests.
