The variety is intended for cultivation in moderately continental climatic conditions and is distinguished by high yield, reaching 3.5–4.0 tons/hectare under optimal conditions. Fruit mass is 30–35 g/plant, and fruits have a round shape with a smooth shell.
Key characteristics include resistance to diseases and pests: the variety demonstrates high resistance to powdery mildew, rots, and viral infections. This reduces the need for chemical protection and makes the crop more economical for farmers. Seeds maintain viability for up to 6 months at 4–8 °C and 10–12% humidity, ensuring flexibility in planting planning.
For successful cultivation, it is recommended to prepare the soil by loosening and applying compost fertilizers, establish crop rotation 3–4 km with an interval of 30–35 cm. Irrigation should be regular but not excessive to avoid waterlogging. Pest control is carried out with systemic insecticides and fungicides according to a schedule. Vicia villosa GLINKOVSKAYA combines high productivity with ease of processing, making it a reliable choice for agronomists seeking to improve rapeseed production efficiency with minimal care and protection costs.
