BAKALAVR

Stable Grain Sorghum: Potential of the «Bakalavr» Variety

The «Bakalavr» variety, developed by the breeders at RosNIISK «Rossorgo» (V.I. Zhuzhukin, V.S. Gorbunov, D.S. Semin), is a specialized solution for farmers focused on producing high-quality white grain. Unlike many forage counterparts, this variety demonstrates high technological efficiency, making it a predictable tool in a changing climate.

Agronomic Advantages

A key feature of «Bakalavr» is its genetic resistance to the most dangerous pathogens that limit sorghum yields. Comprehensive protection against smut and fusarium reduces the need for aggressive fungicide treatments, which directly impacts production costs. Furthermore, its high tolerance to sorghum aphids helps preserve crops during phases when other varieties would require urgent insecticidal intervention.

• Grain direction: high ear filling and excellent quality indicators of white grain.
• Biological reliability: resistance to major sorghum diseases and pests.
• Stability: the variety shows predictable results when basic agronomic standards are met.

Who is this variety for?

«Bakalavr» is the optimal choice for farms seeking a balance between crop security and commercial grain quality. Due to its specific traits, the variety fits perfectly into crop rotations in arid regions that require a crop capable of resisting stress without losing its commercial properties. It is important to note that the variety's potential is fully realized with a competent approach to seeding density, which helps minimize lodging risks and ensures maximum returns per hectare.
