Stable Yields in Intensive Farming

«Pysanka», developed by the Plant Breeding and Genetics Institute (Ukraine), is a top choice for farms focusing on high-quality grain and technological efficiency. As a soft winter wheat variety, it offers high adaptability, with a growing season ranging from 230 to 280 days, making it versatile for various sowing windows and climatic conditions.

Agronomic Profile and Disease Resistance

The primary advantage for agronomists is the combination of superior winter hardiness (8 out of 9) and excellent lodging resistance. This allows for higher mineral fertilization levels without the risk of crop lodging. The variety shows robust resistance to key pathogens:

• Yellow and stem rust — strong genetic barrier.
• Fusarium head blight — significantly reduces the risk of grain quality degradation.
• Powdery mildew — high tolerance, allowing for optimized fungicide application schedules.

Field Economics: Potential and Quality

With a potential yield of 8-9 tons per hectare, "Pysanka" is built for performance. The standout feature is its grain quality: the gluten content consistently exceeds 30%. This categorizes the output as "strong wheat," ensuring high demand in both domestic and export markets.

"Pysanka" is best suited for fertile soils where maximizing both volume and bread-making quality is the priority. Its ability to maintain structural integrity throughout the ripening stage, combined with high physiological resilience, makes it a reliable asset for intensive farming operations looking for consistent profitability.
