JOShUA KWS

JOShUA KWS is a spring hybrid of rape developed by German breeders of the company KWS SAAT SE. It belongs to the group of medium-early varieties with a vegetation period of 95-100 days. The plants reach a height of 95-99 cm and are characterized by very strong lateral branching, which contributes to the formation of a larger number of pods and high grain filling. The hybrid is distinguished by early flowering and prolonged filling, which ensures stable and high-quality yield.

JOShUA KWS has high resistance to lodging and shattering, which significantly reduces losses during harvesting. The hybrid demonstrates high yield — more than 42 centners per hectare, as well as high oil content in seeds, varying from 44.0 to 47.9%. The oil differs in excellent quality, which makes this variety attractive for the production of oilseed products. The mass of 1000 seeds ranges from 3.2 to 4.4 grams, indicating good seed production.

The hybrid is recommended for cultivation in various regions, including the Northwestern and Middle-Volga regions, as well as the Aktobe, Kostanay, and North-Kazakhstan regions. It exhibits high plasticity and resistance to drought and diseases, which allows successful cultivation under various climatic conditions. Thanks to its characteristics, JOShUA KWS is a promising choice for agrarians seeking to obtain high and quality yield of spring rape.
