KWS ETNOS KL is a spring rape (Brassica napus var. napus) group 00 hybrid characterized by the absence of erucic acid and low glucosinolate content. It was bred by German breeders from the company KWS SAAT SE, which has been engaged in rapeseed breeding since 1955, focusing on creating hybrids with high stability and resistance. The hybrid is intended for seed cultivation and is suitable for the Clearfield system, ensuring effective weed control.

The plant is medium-early, with a vegetative period of about 99 days and an average height of 104 cm. Flowering occurs in medium-late terms. The mass of 1000 seeds ranges from 3.1 to 3.8 grams, and the oil content in seeds reaches 45.1–47.4%. Rape is characterized by high resistance to lodging (4.8 points), shattering (4.0 points), and drought (4.0 points), which contributes to stable yield. Leaves are green with moderate serration of the edges, pods are of medium length with a long peduncle.

The yield of KWS ETNOS KL varies depending on the region and growing conditions, reaching an average of 14 c/ha and a maximum of 28.5–40 c/ha. High oil content and adaptability make this hybrid attractive to agrarians seeking to obtain quality raw materials for vegetable oil production. Due to its characteristics and breeding support, KWS ETNOS KL is a reliable choice for cultivation in various regions.
