Lucerne variety Adorna is a high-yielding forage species with a long utilization period, allowing for several cuttings per year — from 4 to 6. This variety is characterized by high leaf and stem yield, providing significant biological production potential, reaching 70-80 tons of forage per year. Its medium-early flowering and high regenerative capacity make Adorna particularly attractive for intensive agricultural use.
Adorna exhibits excellent tolerance to major lucerne diseases, contributing to stable yields and reduced costs for plant protection. Additionally, the variety demonstrates good drought and high-temperature resistance, as well as resistance to lodging, ensuring crop survival and forage quality. The crop's longevity is approximately 4-5 years, enabling effective use of plantings over several seasons.
For sowing lucerne Adorna, the recommended seeding rate is 25-30 kg per hectare at a seed depth of 0.5-1 cm. A crucial condition for successful cultivation is applying fertilizers with phosphorus and potassium requirements of 100 kg P2O5 and 80 kg K2O per hectare annually. This approach ensures optimal growing conditions for plants, promoting high yields and forage quality.
