Orion

A Reliable Choice for Feed and Food Markets

The «Orion» oat variety is a solution for operations focused on predictable yields and high-quality grain without the need for complex, resource-heavy crop protection protocols. As a mid-season variety (95–110 days), it allows for efficient harvest planning, helping to avoid bottlenecks in your machinery schedule.

Operational Performance

• Yield Potential: Consistently delivers 60+ centners per hectare.
• Grain Quality: Light-colored grain with a thousand-kernel weight of 36–40 g. With a protein content of 11–12%, it is highly sought after for both human consumption and high-energy livestock feed.
• Resilience: Features mixed resistance to common diseases, with specific tolerance to stem smut. This helps minimize fungicide applications throughout the growing season.

From an agronomical management perspective, this variety is highly predictable. It does not require deviation from standard cultivation practices. Because the variety is highly uniform, operators find it easier to calibrate combine harvesters. Less variation in crop height and stalk density means fewer adjustments to concave gaps and fan speeds, resulting in lower harvest losses and cleaner grain in the hopper.

Choosing «Orion» means selecting a tool that meets both export quality standards and the demanding needs of livestock complexes. It is a workhorse variety that provides the stability required in modern agriculture, ensuring that your machinery investment is utilized with maximum efficiency during the harvest window.
