Georgina

Technical Profile of the «Georgina» Soybean Variety

Developed by the Bukovinian IAPV of the UAAS, the «Georgina» soybean variety is engineered to meet the demands of modern mechanical harvesting. It serves as a specialized solution for producers prioritizing minimal field losses and consistent lipid profiles.

Plant Architecture and Harvesting Efficiency

The plant height ranges between 70–80 cm, providing an ideal balance for stand stability and biomass production. The most significant technical feature of this variety is the height of the lowest pod attachment, which stands at 20–22 cm. From an agronomic standpoint, this height is critical: it allows for the use of combine headers at lower cutting heights, effectively capturing more grain and significantly reducing harvest waste. This design minimizes the need for specialized adjustments during the harvesting stage, ensuring high throughput and minimal seed damage.

Chemical Composition and Processing Value

With an oil content of 20–21%, the «Georgina» variety provides a consistent raw material for the oilseed processing industry. The stable biochemical profile ensures that the crop meets the necessary industrial requirements for downstream processing. Its physiological development is predictable, which aids in precise timing for harvest operations.

Field Performance

The variety is tailored for uniform crop density, which ensures effective use of soil nutrients. The combination of a 70–80 cm plant height and high pod positioning makes «Georgina» a reliable choice for large-scale operations utilizing standard combine machinery. By eliminating the issues associated with low-hanging pods, the variety increases the total net yield per hectare while maintaining high standards for the final grain quality.
