Wheat variety Angelus is a high-yielding and winter-hardy variety with excellent flour quality and stable agronomic characteristics. This variety is characterized by its resilience and good plant health, which, together with its prolonged grain-filling phase, ensures high yields. Angelus features a balanced combination of yield and grain quality, making it highly sought after for bread production due to its excellent baking properties.

Protein content in the grain ranges from 13.0% to 14.0%, and raw gluten content varies between 26.2%–28.6%. The thousand-grain weight ranges from 38.3 to 43.8 grams.
