The green biomass yield of the variety is consistently high: over the past few years, a value of around 70 c/ha of dry matter has been observed, with the maximum yield reaching 111 c/ha. The protein content in the dry matter of green biomass is approximately 17%, and fiber is almost 23%. When collecting protein, a level of about 11 c/ha is observed.

The variety is characterized by good winter hardiness, drought resistance, and disease resistance. It is able to withstand snowless and frosty conditions, making it suitable for cultivation in various climatic zones. Due to high yield indicators and nutritional value, "Sudar" is the preferred choice for producing high-quality feeds.
