KRYMSKY

Krymsky esparcet is a mid-season variety of the legume family Onobrychis Mill., specifically recommended for cultivation in Crimea due to its high winter hardiness and drought resistance. The plant is characterized by a cylindrical, long inflorescence of medium density, ensuring high yields of green mass – 238.7 c/ha, dry matter – 61.8 c/ha, and seeds – 10.9 c/ha under the steppe climate conditions of the region. Esparcet is resistant to diseases and pests, making it a reliable choice for farmers.

Krymsky esparcet is not only valuable as a forage plant but also serves as an effective biological fertilizer: belonging to the legume family, it enriches the soil with nitrogen, improving its fertility. The plant also has melliferous properties – the flowers are rich in nectar, allowing for significant honey yields per hectare.

Cultivating this variety requires adherence to optimal agronomic conditions: soil preparation, proper irrigation regime, and fertilization. With proper care, Krymsky esparcet ensures stable productivity and resistance to adverse climatic factors, making it attractive for both commercial production and horticulture.
