The variety is characterized by late maturity, which allows for higher yield and improved dry matter quality. It is distinguished by high winter hardiness and drought resistance, making it suitable for cultivation under variable weather conditions.
The collected data show that 'Vologda Local' is capable of producing up to 8–9 tons of dry matter per hectare. Seed yield ranges from 400 to 500 kilograms per hectare, ensuring a sufficient reserve for subsequent use as feed and industrial raw material.
