The LUCHEZARNAYA soybean variety is an early-maturing, high-yielding Glycine max (L.) Merr. variety intended for cultivation in various regions of Russia, including the Far Eastern, Voronezh, Kursk, Lipetsk, Oryol, and Tambov regions. The plant is indeterminate, of medium height, with purple flowers and yellow seeds; the mass of 1000 seeds is approximately 157 g. The variety's vegetation period is about 108 days, ensuring an early start to flowering and timely crop maturation. The average yield in the region reaches 24.9 centners per hectare, with the highest yield indicators (up to 37 centners per hectare) recorded in the Amur region.
The LUCHEZARNAYA variety is distinguished by its high protein content in seeds — about 38.9%, as well as a significant oil level — 23%. It possesses complex resistance to fungal and bacterial diseases, including high resistance to phyllodictosis and bacterial blight, as well as medium resistance to Septoria. These characteristics make the variety a reliable choice for sustainable and high-quality soybean production.
Recommended cultivation conditions include a sowing density of about 700,000 to 800,000 plants per hectare and a seed rate of about 125 kg per hectare. The variety is adapted to various soil types and capable of withstanding stress conditions such as cold and increased humidity. High seed germination (about 91%) and stable yield make LUCHEZARNAYA an attractive option for farmers seeking a high-quality, protein-rich soybean crop.
