Sustainable productivity for modern farms

"Hadzynka" soft winter wheat, developed by the Bila Tserkva Research Station, is an ideal choice for farms aiming for consistent performance and manageable production costs. Standing at 100–120 cm, this variety shows excellent lodging resistance, ensuring that the crop remains upright even in high-input farming systems or periods of excess moisture during grain filling.

Field performance and resilience

• Disease resistance: A robust genetic shield against brown rust, fusarium head blight, and frit fly damage allows farmers to optimize fungicide application schedules, effectively lowering production costs while maintaining yield quality.
• Grain quality: With a thousand-grain weight of 35–40 g and a gluten content consistently between 25–30%, "Hadzynka" produces high-quality grain that is highly valued by flour mills.
• Harvest efficiency: Being an awnless (beardless) variety, it simplifies harvesting operations and reduces grain loss during mechanical threshing, even in suboptimal weather.

Practical application and agronomic value

"Hadzynka" is best suited for farms looking for a balanced variety that performs well across various rotation cycles. Its high tolerance to powdery mildew and fusarium allows it to thrive even in conditions where previous crops may have left behind high infectious pressure. While the variety is responsive to nitrogen fertilization—which is key to maximizing grain protein and gluten content—it remains stable and reliable, providing the predictability that modern agronomy requires to achieve a successful harvest season.
