Maturation occurs in the first or second decade of September at a sum of effective temperatures of 2500-2600 °C. The variety shows high resistance to plant lodging and pod cracking during storage, ensuring yield preservation and quality. SK Planta is plastic to various row widths and responds well to irrigation, allowing adaptation to different cultivation conditions.

Protein content in seeds ranges from 32.6 to 42.0%, and fat from 20.0 to 24.8%, making this variety attractive for producing high-quality raw materials.
