PAROM

Reliability in the field: operating the «Parom» winter rye

When selecting winter rye, the main criterion for an agronomist is predictability. «Parom», developed by the Ural Federal Agricultural Research Center, was designed as a robust tool for challenging environments. When working with this variety, the first thing you notice is its resilience during unpredictable weather cycles.

Field durability and protection

Lodging is the primary headache for rye growers. «Parom» demonstrates a significant safety margin here: the stalks remain upright even during heavy rain phases during grain filling. This simplifies harvest logistics, removing the stress of dealing with lodged crops and potential machinery downtime.

Regarding plant health, the variety holds its ground against three key threats:

• Powdery mildew and rust: with proper crop rotation, the variety shows high immunity, which allows for savings on fungicide applications.
• Mold: the variety performs excellently during overwintering, showing minimal winterkill after snowmelt.
• Ergot: the breeders focused specifically on resistance to this parasite, which is crucial for maintaining the quality of commercial grain.

Operational features

As a mid-season variety, «Parom» does not require complex management protocols. Its vegetation cycle is balanced to maximize the use of early spring moisture. Agronomists who use this variety report a stable response to standard agricultural practices. The crop cycle is predictable, allowing for an efficient and stress-free harvest schedule.

If you are looking for a technological variety that is forgiving of minor management errors and provides a consistent yield, «Parom» handles these requirements effectively, minimizing risks from disease and lodging.
