Alpha

The Sitnikova tough-stemmed grass variety ALPHA is a high-yield crop plant, possessing excellent drought resistance and low sensitivity to diseases such as fusarium. The plant features a semi-spreading bush with a loose structure, round thick stems, and elongated lanceolate leaves without hair. The leaves are green with a grayish tint, indicating good photosynthetic potential.

The variety's vegetative period lasts about 94–120 days; the plant grows quickly in spring and reaches a height of 120–150 cm. ALPHA seeds are elongated, narrow, pointed, yellow with a brownish tint, which ensures good germination and high yields up to 3.5 c/ha on medium-fertility soils. The bush is resistant to trampling, wear, and salt-tolerant, making it suitable for use in pasture systems.

The ALPHA variety is suitable for sowing in northern and central regions where a high-yield crop plant is required on low and medium-fertility soils. It tolerates temperature fluctuations well and requires regular irrigation only during the active growth period. Thanks to its resistance to fungal diseases and good adaptation to various soil conditions, ALPHA is a valuable component of agricultural systems, providing a stable yield and improving pasture quality.
