Wheat variety FAUSTUS is a high-yielding and stable winter wheat variety, characterized by high resistance to various diseases and drought. This variety exhibits strong competitiveness against weeds and high resistance to lodging, ensuring reliable harvests even under challenging climatic conditions. FAUSTUS is recommended for cultivation in steppe, forest-steppe, and forested regions, confirmed by its adaptability to different soils and good winter hardiness.
Morphological and agronomic characteristics of the variety include medium plant height, early heading and ripening, and high tillering intensity. The number of spikes reaches 590 per square meter, and the thousand-grain weight is 50 grams. The potential yield of the variety reaches 10 tons per hectare, making it attractive for farmers focused on high productivity.
The FAUSTUS variety is characterized by high protein content (13.5%) and gluten content (28%), positively affecting grain quality. It exhibits tolerance to root rots, powdery mildew, septoria, and fusarium of the ear, as well as resistance to stem breakage and grain shattering. These qualities ensure stable and high-quality harvests, along with economic benefits due to early ripening and significant yield increases.
