Adelfia

The Adelfia soybean variety is a high-yielding and early-maturing variety with a vegetation period of 98-102 days and an optimal heat unit count of 2450 CHU. Plants reach a height of 70-95 cm, have a semi-determinate growth type, and are characterized by good drought tolerance and cold hardiness down to -10°C. Seeds are yellow in color with a light hilum; thousand seed mass ranges from 170 to 210 g, indicating high quality and product uniformity. The variety is suitable for cultivation in all zones and develops optimally with row spacing from 12.5 to 35 cm.

Adelfia is distinguished by an extremely high protein content (39-43%) and fat content (20-21%), making it particularly valuable for the food industry and feed production. Rapid initial growth and good branching ability contribute to the formation of a high yield, which in trials reached a potential of up to 4.5 t/ha. The variety is resistant to major soybean diseases, including ascochytosis, bacterial spot, downy mildew, septoria, sclerotinia, and fusarium, which significantly reduces loss risks and ensures yield stability.

High lodging resistance and excellent cold hardiness indicators make Adelfia a reliable choice for various climatic conditions. Recommended seeding rates range from 480 to 700 thousand seeds per hectare, allowing for optimization of planting density depending on growing conditions. Thanks to its characteristics and seed quality, Adelfia is a leader among group 000 varieties and is popular among producers seeking maximum return from each hectare of sown area.
