Leleka

The "Lelika" variety is an early-maturing white mustard with a vegetation period of 85‑90 days and a potential yield of 2.1 to 2.5 t/ha. Seeds weighing 1000 g account for only 7–9 g, indicating the compactness of the fruits. Due to a 50% reduction in erucic acid content and reduced volatile (allyl) oil volume, this variety is particularly valuable for the food industry, where mild bitterness and low levels of irritating compounds are important.

"Lelika" is distinguished by its resistance to lodging and does not shatter, making it suitable for mechanized cultivation. The variety grows well on light and medium soils with moderate irrigation and good lighting, and can also be used as a cover crop that enhances soil fertility and improves the quality of subsequent crops. As a nectar plant, it provides a good yield of nectar.

Seeds of this variety are easily sown in spring after soil preparation; they germinate quickly and provide high yield due to disease resistance. Thanks to its biochemical characteristics, "Lelika" is suitable for both home gardens and commercial production, ensuring a stable output of quality white mustard.
