Armada

The variety combines very high yield potential with excellent fiber quality and a rollergin turnout of 43–45%. It performs exceptionally well even in heavy, marginal, and low-fertility soils, demonstrating outstanding drought tolerance and yield stability under stress conditions.Despite its smooth, hairless leaf type, the variety shows tolerance to Empoasca leafhopper pressure. It also exhibits tolerance to fiber shedding and boll exposure losses and is well suited for mechanical harvesting. With its strong and vigorous plant structure, the variety remains green and healthy until the end of the growing season.

In official registration trials conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture during the 2019/20 season, Armada ranked first in yield performance among all tested varieties
