Oat Spurt

A Reliable Choice for Food-Grade Production

The «Spurt» oat variety, developed by the Synelnykove Research Station, is a proven solution for farmers focused on high-quality commercial grain. This variety is designed for efficient integration into crop rotations, consistently delivering predictable results in various climatic zones.

Field Performance and Management

When planning your sowing strategy, consider the key agronomic profile of the Spurt variety:

• Maturity Window: As a mid-season variety (95–110 days), it allows for efficient planning of harvest operations, preventing equipment bottlenecks during the busy summer season.
• Harvest Reliability: High resistance to shattering is one of the standout features of this variety. It protects yields even if harvest is slightly delayed due to unpredictable weather or logistical constraints.
• Plant Architecture: Reaching a height of 90–100 cm, the crop maintains a balance between biomass production and mechanical harvestability, minimizing losses during threshing.

Economic Value

Spurt is specifically categorized for food-grade use, making it an excellent choice for processors and exporters. With a 1000-grain weight of 32–36 grams and bright yellow kernels, it consistently meets industry standards. In practical farm scenarios, yield potential ranges between 40 and 50 centners per hectare. By selecting this variety, producers opt for a stable performance that does not require extreme input levels, making it an economically viable tool for optimizing production costs while ensuring a marketable product at the end of the season.
