Zakat

Technical profile of the «Zakat» soybean variety

The «Zakat» variety, developed by the Federal Scientific Center (FNC) for Soybean Research, is a mid-season cultivar adapted to regions with moderate thermal resources. Its main advantage lies in the balance between the maturation cycle and the grain’s nutritional profile.

Biological parameters and vegetation

The vegetation period spans 110–120 days. This time frame allows the plant to fully complete its generative organ formation, accumulating necessary nutrient reserves. For agronomists, this ensures predictable planting schedules and resilience against late-summer temperature fluctuations.

Protein content and quality

For the processing industry, protein content is a definitive factor. The «Zakat» variety consistently achieves protein levels between 39–41%. In terms of plant physiology, this indicates effective nitrogen metabolism and high photosynthetic activity, both of which are critical for maximizing commercial grain yield.

Practical application

Choosing this variety is highly efficient for producers aiming for stable yields with predictable quality. By leveraging the genetic potential of the FNC Soybean Research Institute, the variety offers excellent technical performance: seeds show uniform germination and synchronized maturation, which facilitates mechanized harvesting and reduces harvest losses.
