Zolote Runo

Golden Rune is a high-yielding variety of winter hard wheat, intended for cultivation in steppe and forest-steppe zones. It features medium-height plants (105–115 cm) with a vegetation period of 270–285 days. The variety exhibits comprehensive resistance to major diseases, including septoria, various types of powdery mildew, brown and stem rust, and powdery mildew. Due to its high drought tolerance and resistance to lodging, Golden Rune demonstrates stable productivity even under adverse climatic conditions. The wheat of this variety has high grain quality: protein content ranges from 14.7% to 16%, and gluten content from 34.7% to 38.9%. Thousand-grain weight is 826–841 g/l, meeting the requirements of top-grade hard wheat. The variety has moderate resistance to lodging and an early-maturing harvest date. Application of fertilizers, especially nitrogen, enhances protein content and increases yield, making this variety attractive to farmers seeking high-quality and high-volume harvests. Golden Rune is suitable for cultivation using modern agronomic technologies, including early spring fertilizer application and proper soil preparation. Due to its characteristics, the variety is versatile and can be used for both food grain production and other purposes requiring high-quality hard grain. Its disease resistance and resilience to adverse weather conditions ensure reliable and stable yields.
