Topaz 2

Stable yields with reduced fungicide costs

When working with seed material from the Selection and Genetics Institute, you immediately notice a focus on predictable results. The "Topaz 2" pea variety performs like a reliable workhorse in the field. The main advantage for an operator is its resistance to a complex of diseases, which significantly reduces the budget for chemical crop protection.

Genetically embedded protection

The primary headache when growing legumes is fungal infections, which can destroy up to half of the crop a week before harvest. "Topaz 2" addresses this issue thanks to its natural resilience. We observe a high threshold of resistance to threats such as:

• Mycosphaerella blight and coccomycosis;
• Various types of rot;
• Powdery mildew (oidium);
• Brown spot.

When working with this variety, you notice that the field does not require scheduled "reanimation" fungicide treatments. This simplifies machinery logistics and reduces the burden on operators: fewer passes in the field means lower fuel consumption and equipment wear.

Field operation features

As a legume crop, "Topaz 2" demonstrates excellent uniformity of the crop. This is critical when setting up combine harvester headers. We note minimal losses during mass intake, as the plants are not prone to chaotic lodging when seeding rates are observed. Crop management is standard, but the lack of need to constantly fight infectious pressure allows focusing on timely micronutrient application and fertilization.

If your goal is to achieve a predictable grain volume with minimal risk of quality loss due to fungal diseases, "Topaz 2" stands out as one of the most rational solutions on the Ukrainian market.
