Soybean variety Sigalia is a mid-season, high-yielding variety recommended for cultivation in forest-steppe, steppe, and Polesye zones. This variety is characterized by a vegetation period of about 110 days and an indeterminate growth type, ensuring stable growth and crop formation. Plant height reaches 70-90 cm, and the mass of a thousand seeds varies from 180 to 220 grams, indicating large-fruitedness and good pod filling.
Sigalia has a high yield potential, ranging from 2.8 to 4.5 tons per hectare, depending on growing conditions. The variety is distinguished by high resistance to lodging and shattering pods, which helps maintain crop quality and quantity. Additionally, it demonstrates high drought tolerance and low susceptibility to major diseases, including downy mildew, bacterial blight, sclerotinia, and viral infections, making it a reliable choice for various agroclimatic conditions.
In terms of chemical composition, Sigalia is noted for its high protein content (39-42%) and oil content (20-22%), making it attractive for grain-oriented use, including production in the organic segment. The recommended sowing rate is 550–620 thousand viable seeds per hectare, ensuring optimal planting density and maximum productivity. Thanks to its characteristics, Sigalia is an effective solution for farmers seeking to obtain a high-quality soybean crop.
