Abstract
A characteristic of a new variety of monoecious Cannabis sativa Lyudmila is presented. Potential selection number is ??-5/012?, which participated in competitive crop variety testing in 2017-2019 and demonstrated significant superiority over the standard variety regarding the characteristics “male hemp plants content”, “straw yield”, “fiber total yield”, “fiber total harvest”, “combed fiber breaking force”, “combed fiber flexibility”. In 2020, an application was submitted for the inclusion of a selection number in the State Register of selection inventions of the Russian Federation under the name “cannabis sativa variety Lyudmila”. A distinctive feature of the variety is the absence of male hemp plants segregation in a crop and the reduced content of tetrahydrocannabinol in plants in relation to already existing varieties of cannabis sativa of Middle Russian ecotype. At present time, the variety is undergoing the State examination and is at the stage of accreditation for approval for use on the territory of the Russian Federation. Based on the introduction of a new selection achievement, it is planned to transfer the scientific results into various regions of hemp sowing of the Russian Federation agro-industry in order to increase the pace of its economic development, increasing the competitiveness of manufactured products and ensuring import substitution.
