Wheatgrass PERENNIAL

Agrotechnical Advantages of the «Stoykiy» Variety

The «Stoykiy» couch grass variety, developed by experts at RosNIISK «Rossorgo» (originators: V. I. Zhuzhukin, G. I. Kostina, A. G. Ishin), represents a selection solution for establishing long-term forage lands. The key value of this variety lies in its high adaptability to abiotic stresses, which is critical for regions with risky farming conditions.

Biometric Parameters and Functionality

The plant has a variable height ranging from 40 to 150 cm, allowing for flexible mowing schedules depending on the vegetation phase and specific goals for haylage production or grazing. The technical specialization of the variety is forage production. Due to its morphological features, «Stoykiy» effectively utilizes soil moisture, forming a dense turf that is resistant to mechanical wear and trampling.

Why This Matters for Your Farm

• Leafiness: The variety demonstrates a high tillering coefficient, ensuring a dense stand and, consequently, an increased yield of green mass per unit area.
• Regeneration: A high regrowth rate after mowing allows for multiple full-cycle harvests per season while maintaining the nutritional value of the raw material.
• Technical Efficiency: Uniformity of plant development within the specified height range simplifies the adjustment of harvesting equipment, reducing losses during mowing.

The selection work by RosNIISK «Rossorgo» aims to create highly viable plant material capable of maintaining productivity on depleted or erosion-prone soils. Integrating this variety into crop rotations contributes not only to strengthening the fodder base but also to restoring soil fertility.
