Wheat Horvitsia

Winter wheat variety Horvitsia is a high-yielding, intensive variety recommended for cultivation in the Polissia, Forest Steppe, and Steppe regions. This variety is medium-early in maturity group and has a high yield potential, reaching 10.0–11.0 tons per hectare. Plant height ranges from 95 to 104 cm, providing good resistance to lodging and shattering.

Horvitsia variety is distinguished by high protein content in grain — 13.9–14.6 %, and thousand-grain weight of 39–42 grams. It exhibits resistance to several diseases, including root rot, septoria, fusarium, brown rust, and powdery mildew, making it a reliable choice for farmers seeking stable and high-quality yields.

For sowing, the recommended rate is 4.5–5.0 million germinating seeds per hectare, taking into account the cultivation zone and soil moisture level. Sowing should be conducted in the latter half of the optimal period, which promotes better rooting and plant development. Wheat Horvitsia is widely used in the production of flour, bread, porridge, and other food products, making it an important crop in agriculture.
