*Tests on the economic value of the variety ware carried out in 2015 and 2016 in Plunge, Kaunas, Pasvalys and Utena plant resting departments.

**In fungicide-free field trials for disease resistance, in 2015-2016, there were very few plants affected by powdery mildew (Erisyphe graminis), the resistance was rated 8-9 points. Plants were injured by Helminthosporium graminea, Helminthosporium teres and Helminthosporium sativum. The resistance of barley 'Katniss' to these diseases was evaluated from 6 to 9 points (with 9 points - very good resistance).

• Yield potential – 4 points (out of 4)
• Plant height – 2.5 points (out of 4)
• Resistance to lodging – 3.5 points (out of 4)
• Resistance to Powdery Mildew – 3.5 points (out of 4)
• Resistance to Helminthosporium teres – 4 points (out of 4)
• Resistance to rhynchosporiosis (Rhynchosporium secalis) – 2.5 points (out of 4)
• Maturity – 2.5 points (out of 4)
• Number of grains in the penis – 2.5 points (out of 4)
• Grain coarseness – 3.5 points (out of 4)
• Crop density – 3.5 points (out of 4)
