Chickpea VOLGOGRADSKY 10

Stable chickpea yields in challenging conditions

The 'Volgogradskiy 10' chickpea is a breeding product developed with the participation of the Omsk State Agrarian University named after P.A. Stolypin. The variety has established itself as a reliable solution for high-risk farming zones where resistance to pathogens and stress factors is critical.

Key advantages

• Crop Health: The primary strength of 'Volgogradskiy 10' is its genetic resistance to fusarium wilt and ascochyta blight. This allows agronomists to reduce the number of fungicide treatments, lowering production costs.
• Efficiency: High resistance to pod shattering facilitates mechanized harvesting, minimizing field losses. The pea-shaped seeds (8-9 mm in size) make this variety highly sought after for both processing plants and direct export.
• Stability: The 1000-seed weight ranges between 200-250 g, which is an optimal metric for commercial batches. With a potential yield of 2.5–3.0 t/ha, the variety demonstrates consistent performance when standard agricultural practices are followed.

Who should choose 'Volgogradskiy 10'?

This variety is an excellent choice for farms focused on the food market and feed production. The 85-95 day maturation period helps avoid late summer droughts, making it ideal for regions with shorter growing seasons. High protein content (up to 24%) enhances its competitiveness in the feed and food processing industries.

It is important to note that resistance to the pulse beetle makes this variety more convenient for long-term storage, setting it apart from many less protected alternatives. 'Volgogradskiy 10' represents a balance between breeding reliability and ease of cultivation, proven by practitioners and the scientific community alike.
