IVOLGA

Ivolga is a variety of soft spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) of the lutenscent type, characterized by medium maturity with a vegetative period ranging from 83 to 99 days. The plant is of medium height with a semi-erect bush and a pyramidal, loose white head. The mass of 1000 grains varies from 27 to 43 grams. The variety is resistant to lodging and has drought resistance at the level of the standard, ensuring yield stability under various climatic conditions. Average yield is about 30.4 c/ha (2.68 t/ha), confirming its good productivity in growing regions, particularly in the North-West.

Ivolga is distinguished by its excellent baking qualities, making it in demand for the food industry. The variety is moderately resistant to powdery bunt and also demonstrates resistance to powdery mildew, brown rust, and septoria, reducing the risk of yield loss due to diseases. These characteristics make Ivolga a reliable choice for farmers seeking a quality and stable harvest of soft spring wheat.

A feature of the variety is its medium height and resistance to lodging, which facilitates care and harvest collection. In comparative studies with other varieties of wheat with purple grain, Ivolga showed an average maturation period and high resistance to powdery mildew. These properties, combined with good adaptation to the conditions of the Central Non-Black Earth Zone, make the variety universal and promising for cultivation in various regions with a moderate climate.
