Tridge summary

Scientists from the Krasnovodopadskaya Agricultural Economy have developed two new agricultural varieties, safflower "Vodopad-23" and winter wheat "Shol." The wheat variety is known for its high yield, winter hardiness, and resistance to various conditions, while the safflower variety is cold-resistant and drought-resistant, resulting in a higher productivity than the standard. Both varieties are expected to enhance agricultural performance and contribute to richer harvests.

New varieties of safflower “Vodopad-23” and winter wheat “Shol” were developed by scientists from the Krasnovodopadskaya Agricultural Economy. This was reported by the National Agrarian Scientific and Educational Center (NANOC). According to the information, the new variety of winter wheat “Shol” was developed by NANOC scientists as a result of individual selection from a hybrid population. This variety has rich botanical diversity and is a hybrid species of Hostianum. The characteristics of “Shol” are impressive: cylindrical spikelets 8-12 cm long, dense structure, 14-18 spines per 10 cm, long rough internodes of white color. The grain is glassy, semi-long, large, red in color, with a smooth base and a middle groove. “The economic value of the variety is manifested in its high yield: weight of 1000 grains 40.8-49.0 g, volume 757-820 g/l, number of grains in the main ear 45.5-60.5, productive bush 2.2 -2 ,8. In addition, “Shol” is characterized by high winter hardiness, resistance ...
