Urup is a variety of soft winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) characterized by a medium-early maturity period and a medium-tall or tall plant type with a height of about 105-110 cm. The vegetation period of the variety ranges from 217 to 258 days, allowing it to develop successfully in various climatic conditions of the North Caucasus region and surrounding areas. The variety differs in its resistance to lodging and shattering, which contributes to crop preservation and quality improvement.
One of the key features of the Urup variety is its high resistance to diseases, including brown rust, yellow rust, powdery mildew, septoria, and head blight. This makes it particularly valuable when growing on soils with a risk of infection by these diseases, as well as when using fusarium-dangerous predecessors such as corn. The drought resistance of the variety is at or slightly above average, while frost resistance exceeds average levels, ensuring crop stability in variable climatic conditions.
The Urup variety is recommended for cultivation in various zones of the North Caucasus region, including the Republic of Adygea, Krasnodar Krai, Stavropol Krai, the Karachay-Cherkess Republic, as well as the Prizovaya and Southern zones of the Rostov Region. It is intended for obtaining high-quality grain with good baking properties. The mass of 1000 grains varies from 38 to 47 grams, while the maximum yield can reach 100.2 centners per hectare, making the variety attractive for agricultural producers focused on quality and production stability.
