The yellow lupin variety (Lupinus luteus L.) is a universal crop suitable for grain, green mass, and silage production. It has a vegetation period ranging from 90 to 119 days, making it usable both in early and late stages of the sowing calendar. Plant height varies between 65 and 72 cm, and it exhibits a determinate growth type that limits the growth of second-order branches.
Key yield indicators make this variety attractive to agronomists: average grain yield is about 1.81 t/ha, with a maximum of 2.09 t/ha. Green mass reaches 67–80 t/ha, while protein content in the grain is consistently high (42.4%), ensuring the product's nutritional value. In the dry matter of green mass, protein ranges from 19–20%.
The yellow lupin variety is characterized by high resistance to pests and diseases: it shows resistance to fusarium wilt (88.4%) and moderate resistance to viral diseases. Additionally, the plant demonstrates good adaptability to various climatic conditions, confirmed by its inclusion in the State Register of Breeding Achievements in the Russian Federation. Due to these characteristics, the variety is a reliable choice for farmers seeking to enhance crop productivity and quality.
