Wheat Nota Odeska

Focus on Stability and Grain Quality

Winter soft wheat "Nota Odeska" is the choice of farmers aiming for high-quality commercial grain while minimizing risks during critical vegetation phases. This variety of Ukrainian selection, developed by the Plant Breeding and Genetics Institute (PBGI-NCSS), has proven itself as a reliable tool for farms operating in regions with moderate to sufficient moisture, where the protection of crops against fungal infections is a priority.

Agrotechnological Potential and Protection

The key feature of this variety is its "immune" map. Due to its high resistance to a complex of foliar and stem diseases, including all types of rust, powdery mildew, and fusarium head blight, "Nota Odeska" allows for the optimization of the fungicide application schedule. Under epiphytotic conditions, the variety demonstrates excellent survival rates, which is crucial for maintaining a yield potential of 7–10 tons per hectare.

• Technological Flexibility: The vegetation period of 280–290 days allows the variety to effectively utilize the stored winter-spring moisture.
• Lodging Resistance: The strong stem allows for the application of high nitrogen fertilizer rates to achieve gluten levels of 25–30% without fear of crop losses during high winds or heavy rains.
• Grain Mass: The indicator of 40–45g per 1000 seeds ensures good germination energy and uniform stand establishment, simplifying seeding density planning.

It is recommended for intensive cultivation technologies where there is a possibility for top-dressing on frozen ground and high-quality application of growth regulators. This variety does not require experiments; it is predictable in performance and stable in grain quality parameters, making it an optimal solution for fulfilling food contracts.
