Amur

Technical features of the "Amur" leaf dill

The "Amur" dill by NPO "Sad i Ogorod" is a breeding solution focused on obtaining high-quality leaf biomass. Unlike umbrella-type forms, the genetic potential of this variety is centered on a delayed transition to the bolting phase, which is critical for extending the period of commercial maturity of the herbs.

Morphological and biological characteristics

• Crop type: Leaf dill designed for regular harvesting of fresh produce.
• Leaf rosette development: Forms a dense, compact rosette with intensive branching. The leaves have a deep dark green hue with a pronounced waxy coating, increasing resistance to micro-damage and maintaining marketability during transport.
• Adaptability: The originators from NPO "Sad i Ogorod" (V.V. Stepanov) have built high plasticity into the variety. The crop effectively utilizes nitrogen fertilizers, rapidly increasing green mass under controlled irrigation conditions.

Practical significance for agricultural enterprises

The primary advantage of "Amur" lies in the balance between vegetation speed and aromatic qualities. High essential oil content is maintained even during active green mass growth, making it a preferred choice for commercial cultivation. The stability of the habit allows for mechanized harvesting with minimal loss. The variety demonstrates a predictable reaction to changes in daylight duration, enabling the planning of conveyor plantings in open fields and greenhouses.
