Breeders of the Adygeya scientific research Institute of agriculture in 2016 they plan to procure up to one thousand tons of elite seeds of winter grain for subsequent sale to farmers with the aim of obtaining a stable high yield and quality. About this SOUTH.Roux said the Director of the research Institute Rashid Tuguz.

According to him, on experimental plots under ideal conditions, potential yield is up to 70-75 C/ha, in terms of production capacities not below the average yield of the district.

In 2016, variety "micophone" and "mountain girl" during a heavy June rains have performed well, showed high resistance to lodging and diseases. Was quite good and elite varieties of grain breeders of Adygea Rostov region and Stavropol region, where more extreme conditions.

"Weather conditions in the early summer of 2016 were unfavorable for winter crops. In June, ten days had the five-month norm of precipitation. But our varieties due to medium stalk withstood wind loads, waterlogging, and showed high resistance to diseases", – said Rashid Tuguz.

Today in the Republic the average coverage area of elite crop varieties is about 14%. Most of these areas are in Koshekhabl, Giaginskaya, Teuchezhsky areas and also in Maykop.

As reported in the SOUTH.ru, the average yield of winter crops in 2016 to 52.5 kg/ha. is Projected to more than 720 thousand tons of gross harvest of grain, which is above last year's figures by 60 thousand tons.

Experts say that a good harvest in the zone of risky agriculture is achieved largely through the use of the best world achievements to improve the fertility and productivity of the fields, to restore the culture of agriculture.

So the prospect of Adygea scientists plan to continue research and to lay the experimental varieties on the basis of material from China, received in July as part of a breeding exchange between scientists of the Republic of Adygea and the Chinese side.
