PSKOVSKIY 85

Focusing on fiber quality

The «Pskovsky 85» flax variety, developed by the Federal Research Center for Bast Fiber Crops, is specifically engineered for high-quality fiber production. In commercial farming, success hinges on balancing disease resistance with superior industrial fiber parameters. This variety performs consistently even in environments prone to fungal pathogens.

Key advantages and technical details

• Enhanced phytosanitary protection: Genetic resistance to fusarium wilt and flax rust significantly reduces the need for frequent fungicide applications, helping to lower production costs.
• Growth cycle: The vegetation period spans 85 to 100 days. This timeline provides farmers with sufficient flexibility during the harvest season, reducing the impact of unpredictable weather patterns.
• Fiber quality: Its primary focus on fiber makes this variety highly attractive for processing plants that prioritize the yield and tensile strength of the bast fiber.

Target audience for this variety

«Pskovsky 85» is an optimal solution for agricultural producers in regions where flax rust remains a recurring threat to harvest stability. If your priority is obtaining a consistent, high-grade fiber yield while keeping chemical input costs in check, this variety offers the reliability required for modern production strategies. While it requires standard agronomic practices for fiber flax, it rewards producers with the predictability essential in a competitive market.
