ES CAPRIS

ES Capriz is an early-maturing, simple hybrid sunflower developed for cultivation using the innovative Clearfield Plus technology. The hybrid's vegetation period is approximately 103-105 days, allowing for early harvest. Plants reach a height of up to 170 cm, have well-branched leaves, promoting dense row closure. The sunflower head is distinctly convex, with a diameter of up to 23 cm, and the 1000-seed weight is around 60-62 g. Oil content in the seeds is at the level of 48-49%, ensuring high oil yield.

The ES Capriz hybrid features high initial growth energy, providing rapid and vigorous plant development. It exhibits high plasticity and adaptability to various soil-climate conditions and cultivation technologies, including steppe, forest-steppe, and dryland zones. Recommended planting density varies depending on soil moisture: 45-50 thousand plants per hectare under insufficient moisture, and 55-60 thousand under adequate moisture.

ES Capriz demonstrates high resistance to a wide range of stress factors and diseases. It is tolerant to 7 races of downy mildew (A-G), resistant to rust, false powdery mildew, fomopsis, head and stem sclerotinia, verticillium, and possesses high drought tolerance and lodging resistance. These characteristics make the hybrid a reliable choice for achieving stable and high yields under various cultivation conditions.
