TULUNSAYA 12

Siberian endurance: yield potential of up to 9 tons

Spring soft wheat "Tulunskaya 12" is a selection product from the Siberian Federal Scientific Center of Agrobiotechnology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, designed for those operating in challenging climatic environments. The primary advantage of this variety lies in its blend of high adaptability to harsh conditions and impressive yield potential, reaching 8-9 tons per hectare. Unlike many varieties that focus solely on stability, this option allows farmers to target record-breaking results when proper agricultural practices are applied.

A protective shield for crops

A key feature of "Tulunskaya 12" is its comprehensive resistance to a wide spectrum of pathogens. The variety demonstrates solid resilience against brown rust and bunt (stinking smut), significantly reducing the need for fungicide applications. Furthermore, the crop effectively resists Mycosphaerella leaf spot, stem smut, and powdery mildew. This makes the crops less vulnerable to weather volatility, which often triggers epiphytotics in more sensitive varieties.

Grain characteristics and agronomy

• Type: Spring soft wheat.
• Thousand-kernel weight (TKW): Varies between 30 and 40 grams depending on growing conditions.
• Lodging resistance: High, facilitating easier harvesting even under high-yield conditions.

Who is this variety optimal for? Primarily for agricultural enterprises in high-risk farming zones where a combination of hardiness and disease resistance is critical. The variety is forgiving of errors related to excess moisture during the growing season, which often causes fungal outbreaks in less robust varieties. With the right cultivation technology, "Tulunskaya 12" serves as a reliable tool for producing high-quality food-grade grain.
