The ear is pyramid-shaped, of medium density, and white in color, with the grain colored. The variety is distinguished by its resistance to diseases such as loose smut, brown rust, and septoria, which contributes to a stable yield and reduced losses during cultivation. The average yield of the variety in recommended regions is about 22.1 c/ha, while maximum indicators reach 46.7 c/ha. EKADA 279 has good baking qualities, making it attractive for agricultural production and processing. The variety is recommended for cultivation in the Orenburg region and the Republic of Bashkortostan, and is also adapted and successfully used in various regions of Russia, including the Ulyanovsk region, where its cultivation contributes to economic efficiency. The selection of the variety is carried out by Ulyanovsk specialists, who ensure the production of seeds of higher reproductions, guaranteeing high quality of sowing material. This allows farmers to obtain stable and high yields, as well as effectively use the variety in regional agronomic systems. EKADA 279 is a reliable choice for spring wheat due to the combination of disease resistance, good yield, and grain quality.
