AFK Tempo

Premium Quality and Agronomic Stability

«AFK Tempo» represents a significant development in soybean breeding by the agricultural firm «AF Kolos». Developed by breeders Olena and Volodymyr Bahatchenko along with Leonid Tsentylo, this variety is designed for growers who prioritize yield stability and high nutritional value. With a vegetation period of 105–115 days, it fits perfectly into various crop rotation cycles, ensuring harvest readiness before the peak of adverse seasonal weather.

Performance and Harvest Efficiency

The variety is highly valued for its mechanical harvesting qualities. With a plant height of 90–110 cm and the lowest bean attachment level at 12–15 cm, «AFK Tempo» is optimized for modern combine harvesters. This physical structure significantly reduces seed loss during harvest, keeping purity levels high. The protein content (40–42%) and oil content (21–23%) meet the stringent requirements of modern processing facilities, making the variety a profitable choice for commercial farms.

Integrated Disease Resistance

A key feature of «AFK Tempo» is its robust phytosanitary profile. By integrating natural resistance to major pathogens into the variety, the breeders have enabled farmers to reduce reliance on intensive fungicide programs. The variety shows significant resistance to:

• Peronosporosis, Septoria, and Bacteriosis.
• Sclerotiniosis, Mycosphaerella blight, and Fusarium.
• Ascochytosis and brown leaf spot.

This genetic immunity is particularly beneficial for sustainable farming, as it minimizes environmental impact while maintaining high yield potential across diverse growing conditions.
