The Institute of Genetics and Cytology offers consumers the variety Soya GLYCINE MAX (L.) MERR. PUSHCHANSKAYA to provide the food industry with a high-protein product of plant origin, the processing industry with raw materials for the production of soy feed products for feeding all types of farm animals under a manufacturing and/or licensing agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

Using DNA technology for certification of varieties and selection of material, the Pushchanskaya soybean variety was created, adapted to the conditions of the central and southern zones of Belarus. It is characterized by adaptability to light soils of the Belarusian Polesie, drought resistance, and high protein content in grain.

Scope - agriculture, crop production.

Recommended for countries with agricultural background and soil and climatic conditions similar to the soil and climatic conditions of the central and southern zones of Belarus.

More information about variety can also be found in the Catalogue of the Institute of Genetics and Cytology of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus "Applied Developments"), p. 27.

Information is posted in Album of promising developments of the NAS of Belarus organizations for the real sector of the economy (2023), , p. 270-271. (in Russian)

Created by traditional selection using marker-assisted selection technology. No genetic modification technologies were used in the creation of the variety (not a GM variety).
