Balaton

Balaton soybean variety is an early-maturing and adaptable variety, characterized by high yield and resistance to adverse conditions. This variety features high winter hardiness and drought tolerance, enabling successful cultivation in various climatic zones. Balaton is low-growing and resistant to lodging, simplifying maintenance and harvest. The optimal planting density is 3.5 to 4.0 million seeds per hectare, promoting maximum productivity.

The variety exhibits high tolerance to diseases such as powdery mildew and rust, significantly reducing yield losses and the need for frequent fungicide applications. Thanks to these qualities, Balaton is a reliable choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality soybean harvest. Yield ranges from 57 to 90.8 centners per hectare, confirming its high productivity.

Balaton is also known for its high protein content (approximately 13-13.5%) and gluten content (27-28.6%), making its grain valuable for the food industry. The variety was registered in 2014 and has since been widely cultivated in various countries, including Romania, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Serbia, and Hungary. Its high adaptability and resistance to various stress factors make Balaton one of the leading soybean varieties on the market.
