Sorghum variety VENSTA represents a medium-early grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) variety developed by the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution «North Caucasus Federal Research Agrarian Center» under the guidance of Edward Karlovich Vakhopsky. Plants reach a height of about 170 cm, have a light green stem and weak tillering. The panicle is broom-like, 42-45 cm long, which is characteristic for this type of sorghum. The variety is distinguished by high resistance to lodging, which contributes to the preservation of the crop and facilitates harvesting.
For successful cultivation, seed treatment before sowing is recommended as the variety is susceptible to loose smut — a disease that can negatively affect the quality and quantity of the crop. Thanks to its agronomic characteristics, VENSTA is widely used in agriculture for growing grain crops, ensuring good yields and resistance to diseases.
The VENSTA variety is a reliable choice for farmers seeking to obtain high-quality sorghum yields with minimal losses. Its features such as high lodging resistance and adaptability to agricultural conditions make it in demand in the agrarian sector.
