KWS Akvilon

Wheat variety KWS Akvilon is a medium-maturing spring type, recommended for cultivation in the Polissya and forest-steppe regions, as well as in areas with various climatic conditions. Plant height ranges from 60 to 70 cm, and the vegetation period lasts 76-84 days. The variety is characterized by very high tillering intensity and a large number of grains per ear, contributing to high yield potential up to 90 centners per hectare, with the maximum yield recorded in state variety trials at 54.2 centners per hectare. The 1000-grain weight varies from 32 to 37 g, with medium-sized grains and a high vitreousness level of approximately 81%. KWS Akvilon exhibits high resistance to major wheat diseases, including powdery mildew, leaf septoria, yellow rust, and fusarium. Additionally, the variety shows enhanced resistance to lodging, ensuring stable yields under adverse weather conditions. Grain quality falls within class 1-2, with crude protein content ranging from 14 to 16%, crude gluten from 28-30%, and natural density of 750-820 g/l, making it valuable for the baking industry. The variety demonstrates strong tillering and a balanced combination of high yield potential with superior grain quality. For sowing, the recommended seeding rate is 370 to 500 seeds per square meter, equivalent to 2.5-6 million seeds per hectare, with seed depth of 3-5 cm. Sowing timing is optimal for achieving maximum yield potential. The number of ears per square meter ranges from 500-650, further confirming the variety's high productivity. Thanks to its characteristics, KWS Akvilon is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to obtain high-quality and stable wheat yields.
