The winter wheat variety Souvenir is a high-yielding Ukrainian selection, suitable for cultivation in various climatic zones of Ukraine, including the Steppe, Polesie, and Forest-Steppe regions. This variety is characterized by high winter hardiness, resistance to lodging and drought, ensuring stable quality and high potential yields, reaching over 100 centners per hectare. Average yields range from 63 to 97 centners per hectare, with plant height varying from 90 to 140 cm. The spike is white, dense, and long, promoting good grain formation. Additionally, the variety is weakly susceptible to common diseases, enhancing its reliability in agronomic terms.
One of the key features of the Souvenir variety is its stable gluten content, ranging from 24-28%, making it attractive for use in the food industry. High resistance to Fusarium ear blight, a fungal disease affecting the root system, stems, and spikes of triticale, is a significant advantage. Fusarium causes root rot, leaf spots, and barren spikes, negatively impacting grain quality and safety. Using resistant varieties such as Souvenir, in combination with agronomic practices and seed treatments, helps effectively prevent the development of this disease.
The triticale variety Souvenir is suitable for cultivation under various soil-climatic conditions in Ukraine, ensuring stable and high yields when agronomic recommendations are followed. Its resistance to adverse factors and diseases, along with its high grain quality, makes it a profitable choice for farmers seeking high-quality products with minimal risk of losses.
