Wheat Lymarivna

Yield stability in extreme conditions

Winter wheat "Lymarivna" is a breeding development by the Institute of Plant Physiology and Genetics of the NAS of Ukraine, tailored for intensive farming. The primary strength of this variety is the combination of high productivity potential (up to 10 tons per hectare) and exceptional adaptability to environmental stressors.

Agronomic profile and resistance

Unlike many high-yield hybrids, "Lymarivna" demonstrates outstanding resistance to a complex of leaf and stem pathogens. The variety shows minimal susceptibility to powdery mildew, fusarium, and Mycosphaerella leaf spot. Key immunity parameters include:

• High winter hardiness (scored 7–9 on the institute's scale), making it a reliable choice for regions with harsh winters.
• Genetic resistance to brown rust and septoria.
• Minimal lodging risk with a plant height of 90-100 cm.

These characteristics allow farmers to optimize fungicide costs, effectively lowering the cost per ton of grain produced.

Grain quality indicators

With an optimal stem density of 4.5–5.0 million units/ha, "Lymarivna" produces plump grain with a 1,000-kernel weight of 40–45 g. A gluten content ranging from 20-25% makes the harvest suitable for the milling industry. Given its yield potential, the variety performs best when nitrogen fertilizers are applied in two phases (stem elongation and heading).

Who is this variety for?

"Lymarivna" is an ideal choice for farms aiming for the "sweet spot": high yield performance without the constant need for intensive fungal disease monitoring. The reliability of this variety helps in budgeting and risk management, particularly against unpredictable winters or epidemic outbreaks of fungal diseases.
