EUF 0001 A — this is a promising hybrid of common grain sorghum with early maturity, developed in the USA and certified to OECD standards. Plants reach a height of 1.0–1.1 meters and have high yield potential, exceeding 100 centners per hectare. One of the genetic features of the hybrid is its ability to germinate in relatively cold soil, allowing early planting and retaining moisture in the upper soil layers. The vegetation period is 100–105 days, ensuring early maturity and the possibility of harvesting within a short timeframe. The hybrid is characterized by high tillering productivity (2–3 tillers), orange grain color, and a 1000-grain weight of about 26 grams. The grain contains 13% protein and 74% starch, making it suitable for various applications, including grain, starch, and alcohol production. The semi-open panicle promotes good ventilation and reduces disease risk. EUF 0001 A exhibits high drought resistance, lodging resistance, disease and pest resistance, particularly to the biotypes 'A' and 'C' of the sorghum midge. Advantages of the hybrid include genetic stability, wide cultivation area, and enhanced cold tolerance in early development stages. The grain contains no tannin, improving its quality and nutritional value. The recommended planting rate is 120–180 thousand seeds per hectare, ensuring optimal plant density and maximum yield. Due to its heat tolerance and pest resistance, EUF 0001 A is a reliable choice for cultivation in various climatic conditions.
