LASTIVKA ODESKA

Genetic Potential and Agronomic Adaptability

Winter wheat 'Lastivka Odeska' is a product of high-intensity breeding, designed to deliver yields of 7–8 tons per hectare. Standing at 110–120 cm, the plant architecture is optimized for biomass accumulation and robust ear development. It is a reliable choice for farmers seeking high-performance varieties that balance physiological resilience with significant yield outputs.

Phytosanitary Defense Systems

The variety is engineered with a high degree of genetic resistance to the most aggressive pathogens. By minimizing the need for heavy fungicide applications, 'Lastivka Odeska' shows excellent immunity against loose and covered smut, brown rust, stem rust, septoria, fusarium head blight, and powdery mildew. This built-in biological barrier provides effective protection against mycosphaerella leaf spot and other fungal threats, even in high-humidity cultivation environments.

Performance Indicators

• Vegetation Period: 270–280 days, allowing for efficient utilization of soil moisture throughout the growing season.
• Yield Structure: The variety reaches a density of 4.5–5.0 million productive stems per hectare.
• Grain Quality: A gluten content of 25–30% places this variety in the high-quality class suitable for milling and baking purposes.
• Seed Weight: A thousand-kernel weight (TKW) of 40–45 grams ensures excellent seedling vigor and strong root establishment.

Developed by the Plant Breeding and Genetics Institute, 'Lastivka Odeska' is designed for optimal performance under modern fertilization and soil management regimes. Its proven stability across varying environmental conditions makes it a solid asset for professional wheat production systems.
