The variety is characterized by high lodging resistance – 5 points on the scale, as well as good resistance to shattering and drought (4 points each). Seed yield fluctuates within 7.7–16.2 c/ha, and green mass yield ranges from 76 to 148 c/ha. Seed oil content is 37.4%, with erucic acid content in oil limited to 0.05% and glucosinolates in meal at 16.7 µmol/g.
