The plant is characterized by medium height of about 95 cm and medium leaf length, which have a narrow shape and green color without anthocyanin coloring. The pods of the variety are beakless, with a beak, and have a medium-length pedicel. The vegetative period is about 95 days, which allows for effective use of the variety in central regions for seed production. The mass of 1000 seeds is 3.1 g, and the oil content in seeds reaches 47.3%, which is an important indicator for oilseed crops. The NOVIK variety is distinguished by its resistance to lodging and shattering, which improves the quality and quantity of the harvest. Average yield in recommended regions is about 9.8 c/ha, with maximum indicators up to 26.9 c/ha, for example, in the Ryazan region. The plant has weak leaf edge serration and medium waxy coating, which contributes to its adaptation to various growing conditions. Thanks to medium autumn growth rate and rapid spring growth, sowing can begin in the first half of the agronomic period, which ensures flexibility in agronomy. NOVIK exhibits high resistance to adverse weather conditions, including frost and drought, and has good resistance to major rape diseases. This makes the variety a reliable choice for farmers seeking a stable and high yield in various agro-industrial zones. Thanks to its characteristics and adaptability, the NOVIK variety is an effective solution for growing rape for seeds in central regions.
