Rye

Annual or biennial herbaceous plant. It has a fibrous root system penetrating to a depth of 1.2-2 m, so it easily tolerates light sandy soils, and due to its high physiological activity it quickly absorbs useful substances from hardly soluble compounds from the soil. The site of tillering in rye is formed at a slightly shallower depth from the soil surface (1.7-2 cm) than wheat (2-3 cm).
