Peredkarpatska 6

A Legacy of Carpathian Breeding

The 'Peredkarpatska 6' red clover variety is the result of extensive breeding work by the Institute of Agriculture of the Carpathian Region of the NAAS of Ukraine. Registered in 1997, this tetraploid variety was developed to provide farmers in the Forest-Steppe zone with a stable and high-yielding forage base. Unlike many diploid counterparts, 'Peredkarpatska 6' exhibits superior growth vigor and improved nutritional value of its green mass.

Agronomic Potential

Over decades of cultivation, the variety has proven its reliability and adaptability to diverse weather conditions, becoming a staple for hayfields and pastures. Its key performance indicators include:

• Productivity: hay yields range from 80 to 110 dt/ha, with seed yields reaching 3.0–5.0 dt/ha.
• Hardiness: the variety features high winter hardiness, which is critical for regions with volatile weather patterns.
• Disease Resistance: genetic resistance to fusarium and clover rot significantly reduces the risk of crop loss.

Its mid-ripening maturity allows for optimized mowing cycles, ensuring livestock farms have a steady supply of high-quality feed throughout the season. Choosing 'Peredkarpatska 6' means investing in time-tested breeding that combines adaptability to the Forest-Steppe zone with consistently high yields.
