Rye DUKATO

DUKATO is a high-yielding rye variety, which is distinguished by its stable good potential. The variety possesses balanced agronomic characteristics, good phytosanitary condition and quality, providing a reliable source of grain production.

The maturity is medium early to medium, and the height is medium to medium tall. The stability of the crop is medium, which is good for selection from the point of view of cultivation technology and nitrogen fertilization.

DUKATO is characterized by good overall phytosanitary condition and balanced good resistance to various stresses related to rye.

One of the important characteristics of the variety is its good tolerance to ergot infection. The variety is well adapted to areas with a risk of infection with ergot fungus (Claviceps purpurea), which is important for producers in areas with rye cultivation.
