Originator — company "SELGEN", Czech Republic. Variety — lutecence. According to ripening group — mid-late maturing variety. Biological characteristics: intense type variety with medium height of stem (90-95 cm), medium tillering, resistant to germination and shattering of grains in ear, drought-resistant, high winter hardiness. Grain quality: belongs to strong wheat varieties, category "A", has high milling and baking properties, protein content — 13.6-14.1%, gluten — 24.2-26.5%, IDK — 100-110. Agricultural characteristics: the variety shows very stable yields under various climatic conditions. Potential yield — 80-85 c/ha. In the last two years, yields obtained under various conditions — 60-80 c/ha. Recommended agronomy: recommended for growing in agronomic regions specializing in sugar beet cultivation. Sowing: the variety is not demanding on predecessors, can be sown after cereal crops. The variety develops very quickly at the beginning of vegetation, therefore suitable for late sowing. Possible to sow after late predecessors: corn, sugar beet… Sowing rate depending on timing — 4.0-5.0 million viable seeds, at very late sowing — 5.5 million viable seeds. Chemical protection: recommended double fungicide treatment, especially in case of high leaf disease intensity. When sown after cereal predecessors, protection against complex stem diseases should be applied. The variety is moderately resistant to lodging, therefore, under intensive cultivation, growth regulators should be applied to strengthen stem elasticity, at normal rate — 1.5-2.5 l/ha. Fertilization: the variety is adapted to medium nitrogen rate, recommended to fertilize in late periods. Considering nitrogen content in soil, total amount of nitrogen fertilizers should not be less than 110 kg/ha of active ingredient.
