"Zolotystyi": Premium Durum Wheat for Professional Farming

In the competitive market of durum wheat (Triticum durum), the "Zolotystyi" variety stands out as a result of expert breeding by Ukraine’s leading agricultural research institutions, including the Breeding and Genetics Institute and the National Scientific Center "Institute of Agriculture of NAAS". Designed for high-end pasta and flour production, this variety is characterized by high gluten content, consistently exceeding 30%.

Agronomic Profile

As a winter wheat variety with a vegetation period of 270–280 days, "Zolotystyi" is well-adapted to the local climate. The plants reach a height of 100–110 cm, providing a balanced architecture. With moderate lodging resistance, the variety performs best under controlled growth conditions, allowing farmers to achieve a potential yield of 5–6 tons per hectare.

Disease Resistance and Productivity

One of the primary benefits of this variety is its robust health profile, which reduces the need for heavy chemical intervention. "Zolotystyi" exhibits excellent genetic resistance to:

• Septoria and various types of smut (bunt).
• Leaf and stem rusts.
• Powdery mildew and Mycosphaerella leaf spot.

The grain quality is defined by a 1,000-kernel weight of 40–45 grams, supported by an optimal productive stem density of 4.5–5.0 million plants per hectare. By selecting "Zolotystyi," producers invest in a reliable, high-protein crop that meets the rigorous demands of the modern grain market.
