Winter triticale variety 'Tyumen Grain Feed' is a hybrid of wheat and rye possessing a unique combination of the economic-biological characteristics of both species. This variety is intended for grain use for both feed and food purposes. The plants are of medium height with a semi-erect tiller and a medium-length head, which is fully awned and has a wax coating of medium intensity. The grain is naked, semi-elongated, yellow or light red in color, with a 1000-grain mass ranging from 39 to 54 grams. The average protein content in the grain is about 11.8%, which ensures good quality of feed and food raw materials. The variety is characterized by medium ripening with a vegetative period from 222 to 281 days and average heading time. It possesses high winter hardiness and resistance to lodging, making it a reliable choice for cultivation in various agro-climatic conditions, including the North Caucasus and Central regions. Under field conditions, the variety demonstrates weak infection with brown rust, septoria, and ergot, indicating good resistance to fungal diseases. Triticale 'Tyumen Grain Feed' is distinguished by high yield potential of grain and green mass, as well as improved adaptive properties. Thanks to breeding work aimed at increasing frost resistance and grain quality, this variety is promising for biologization of agricultural production. It is suitable for the production of feeds, bakery products, and can also be used in food and industrial processing, making it a universal and economically viable choice for farmers and agro-enterprises.
