Wheat ALBIDUM 29

Albidum 29 wheat is a soft spring wheat bred for cultivation in arid and hot conditions. This medium-early variety has a vegetative period of 76 to 83 days, allowing it to ripen simultaneously with standard varieties or even slightly earlier. Albidum 29 possesses high drought and heat tolerance, making it one of the best options for cultivation in the Lower Volga region and the steppe zones of the Volgograd and Saratov regions. The plant is characterized by lodging resistance, which contributes to crop preservation under unfavorable weather conditions.

The mass of 1000 grains varies from 33 to 39 grams, indicating the large-grained nature of the variety. However, the variety is susceptible to diseases such as hard head smut, brown, and stem rust, which requires careful attention to crop protection. Albidum 29 wheat belongs to the steppe ecotype and prefers cultivation on chernozem soils, providing optimal nutrition and plant development. The root system is tufted, which contributes to effective absorption of water and mineral substances from the soil.

In terms of technological characteristics, the variety has satisfactory milling and baking qualities. Protein content in the grain reaches 15.2%, and raw gluten - 40.4%, ensuring good flour quality. The volume of bread baked from flour of this variety is about 1010 ml, and the overall baking rating reaches 4 points. For sowing, a rate of 180-250 kg of seeds per hectare is recommended, and harvesting can be done both separately and by direct combine harvesting.
