Pakhar is a winter triticale variety developed to achieve high yields and excellent grain quality. It is characterized by a short stem, high productive tillering, and adaptability to various soil types, predecessors, and sowing dates. The variety is resistant to main ear diseases such as powdery mildew and rust, and also possesses high winter hardiness, which allows minimizing losses under severe winter conditions.
Pakhar triticale is distinguished by high yield and lodging resistance, drought resistance, and frost resistance. The mass of 1000 grains varies from 42 to 57 grams, while protein content in the grain ranges from 11.6 to 14.6%, ensuring high product quality. The grain contains a significant amount of amylopectin, which improves its properties for food and feed purposes.
The variety is intended for cultivation using intensive technologies, with minimal or moderate fertilizer doses possible. Pakhar is used to obtain fodder grain, green mass, and hay, and also finds application in the baking and confectionery industries, as well as in the production of alcohol and starch. Due to its characteristics, the variety is recommended for cultivation in various regions of Russia, including the Volga-Vyatsk, Central Black Earth, North Caucasian, Middle Volga, Lower Volga, and Ural regions.
