Soybean PRO Vesuvio

Soybean variety PRO Vesuvio belongs to early maturing types with a maturity period of 85-90 days and a sum of effective temperatures (CHU) of 2450. This variety is characterized by high yield, surpassing the Monroe variety, and exhibits enhanced adaptability to adverse growing conditions. PRO Vesuvio is recommended for cultivation in the forest-steppe, Polissia, and steppe regions, due to its drought resistance and reduced sensitivity to water deficit during reproductive organ formation.

Plants of this variety reach heights of 87 to 112 cm, with the lower pod attachment height ranging from 12 to 14 cm. Flowers are white, and seed hilum is black. The 1000-seed mass varies from 130 to 160 grams. The variety is characterized by high protein content — approximately 42% — as well as high oil content in seeds, making it attractive for protein product production. The technological yield potential is 37-40 c/ha at the recommended planting density of 800 thousand plants per hectare.

PRO Vesuvio exhibits disease resistance rated at 9 points and possesses a well-developed root system, ensuring reliable and stable yield. High spring initial growth promotes rapid plant development at the beginning of the vegetation period. Due to its qualities and adaptability, this variety is a reliable predecessor for winter crops and is suitable for cultivation in more northern regions.
