Yatran

Stability and quality: why "Yatran" remains a gold standard

Developed by the Plant Breeding and Genetics Institute (PBGI), this variety has proven its reliability over years of practice in the moderate and sufficient moisture zones of Ukraine. "Yatran" is the choice for agronomists who prioritize predictability over extreme yield records that often come with high risks of crop failure under adverse weather conditions.

Agronomic Profile

With a plant height of 70–80 cm, this variety is technologically convenient: it is resistant to lodging, which is crucial for mechanized harvesting without significant grain loss. Unlike many tall hybrids, "Yatran" ensures uniform maturation, allowing for harvesting within optimal windows.

Biochemical Composition

Nutrient balance is the variety's core strength. A protein content of 37–39% combined with an oil content of 21–22% makes it versatile for processing. It may not be a "protein champion," but it consistently produces quality grain even with standard cultivation practices.

Target Audience

• Farms in the Forest-Steppe zone that require high responsiveness to moderate fertilization.
• Producers looking for a balance between seed costs and final product quality.
• Farmers who prioritize ease of harvest and resistance to seed shattering.

The main drawback is the variety's average performance in extreme drought. If your region suffers from chronic moisture deficits during peak growth phases, "Yatran" will require more careful moisture management. However, in typical Ukrainian climatic conditions, it remains one of the most reliable tools in a crop rotation.
