Chernivetska 9

Chernivetska 9 is a medium-early soybean variety recommended for cultivation in the forest-steppe and steppe zones of Ukraine. The maturation period is 116-120 days, allowing effective use of the variety in regions with moderate climate. Plants reach a height of 65-80 cm, have a determinate growth habit, and are characterized by high resistance to major diseases and stress factors, ensuring stable yields.

The variety is distinguished by high cold tolerance, resistance to lodging, and the fact that pods do not crack, facilitating mechanized harvest. Lower pods are attached at a height of about 14 cm from the ground, which contributes to ease of harvesting. Inflorescences are multi-flowered racemes with 7-8 purple flowers, and seeds have an oval shape, yellow color with a brown hilum, and a 1000-seed weight of 160-180 g.

The potential yield of Chernivetska 9 is 3.0-3.5 t/ha. Seeds are characterized by medium oil content (about 19.7%) and high protein content, reaching 36-40.6%, making this variety attractive for grain use. Due to its agronomic characteristics and seed quality, the variety is widely used in agriculture for obtaining high-quality soybean crops.
