Swordgrass 'Lensky' – a rhizomeless variety of Elymus trachycaulus, developed and registered in 1974 by the Yakut Scientific Research Institute of Agriculture named after M.G. Safronov. The variety received official registration under code 6201296 and was approved for cultivation in all regions of the country, confirming its versatility and adaptability to various climatic conditions.
Key characteristics of 'Lensky' include high resistance to adverse environmental factors, including drought and low soil fertility. The rhizomeless nature of the plant ensures rapid rooting and a stable sowing area structure, making it an ideal choice for agro-landscape projects where resistance to erosion and minimal water consumption are required.
The variety is distinguished by good grain crop yields and high protein content in the grains. Thanks to these properties, 'Lensky' is widely used as a fodder plant for livestock, as well as raw material for flour production and other food products. Its resistance to pests and diseases reduces the need for chemical treatment, which increases the economic efficiency of cultivation and contributes to the ecological safety of agro-production.
