Kam'yanchanka — this is a buckwheat variety recommended for sowing in the forest-steppe zone. The vegetation period of this variety is 99-100 days, which allows obtaining a stable yield under moderate climatic conditions. The grain of Kam'yanchanka has a mass of 28-31 g per 1000 seeds, and the milling yield reaches 73%, making this variety attractive for food use. The yield of the variety varies within the range of 13.5-21.2 c/ha, indicating its high productivity.
The variety is characterized by high resistance to lodging and shattering (7-8 points), drought (6-8 points), and also has strong immunity to diseases such as powdery mildew, bacterial spot, downy mildew, and buckwheat rust, rated at 9 points.
