LO 1018 P X LO 2002 N

LO 1018 P X LO 2002 N is a winter rye hybrid intended for cultivation in the northwestern and lower Volga regions. This medium-maturing hybrid is characterized by a vegetative period from 299 to 346 days, which allows it to successfully adapt to various climatic conditions. The plants have a medium height of 112 to 147 cm and a short stem of medium length, which contributes to resistance to lodging at the level of the Moscow 12 variety.

The hybrid has medium winter hardiness and drought resistance, comparable to the Volkhov and Valdai varieties, which makes it a reliable choice for regions with variable weather conditions. The ear is semi-drooping, medium length and dense, the grain is medium-sized with a 1000-grain mass of 32 to 41 grams. Resistance to diseases is expressed by moderate susceptibility to brown rust, which requires control during the growing season.

The average yield of the hybrid in the specified regions is 38.7 centners per hectare, with a maximum yield of up to 95 centners per hectare. Baking qualities of the grain are assessed as satisfactory, which allows the harvest to be used for producing quality flour and bakery products. LO 1018 P X LO 2002 N is an effective and adaptive hybrid for agricultural production in its cultivation zones.
