TALOVSKAYA 41

Winter rye of the TaloVskaya 41 variety is a medium-early variety with a growing season from 277 to 335 days, developed based on family-group selection of a hybrid population involving short-stemmed and strong-stemmed lines. Plants are medium-height, 96 to 137 cm, with an intermediate bush type and a characteristic erectoid leaf arrangement, where the leaf blade detaches from the stem at an acute angle. The ear is upright, dense, of medium length with a moderate waxy bloom, and the grain is large, with the mass of 1000 grains varying from 29 to 40 grams. A distinguishing feature of the variety is reduced stem height by 20–25 cm compared to other varieties, which increases resistance to lodging.

The TaloVskaya 41 variety is characterized by high yield, averaging about 38-39 c/ha in the Central and Central-Black Earth regions, with maximum indicators reaching 79 c/ha, recorded in the Lipetsk region. It has increased winter hardiness and resistance to lodging, as well as drought resistance at the level of standard varieties. However, the variety is susceptible to diseases such as brown rust and snow mold, which requires additional protective measures during cultivation.

The main purpose of the variety is the production of food grain with satisfactory baking qualities and a high falling number up to 236 s. In addition, winter rye TaloVskaya 41 can be used as green fertilizer to improve soil quality. Due to its agronomic characteristics and adaptability to various growing regions, this variety is a reliable choice for agricultural producers seeking a stable and high-quality harvest.
