Flax Gilbert

Technological Potential of «Gilbert» Flax

The complex hybrid «Gilbert», registered in Ukraine in 2026, is the result of breeding efforts by JTSD Ltd. This variety is tailored for intensive production, where the focus lies not only on yield but also on the raw material's suitability for deep industrial processing.

Processing and Raw Material Quality

The primary purpose of the «Gilbert» harvest is the production of high-quality technical oil and oilcake. Due to the specifics of the breeding method (SZ), the hybrid exhibits a stable lipid profile, which is critical for oil extraction plants. Seed uniformity ensures a consistent oil yield during pressing, while the low percentage of impurities in commercial batches simplifies cleaning processes at grain elevators.

Logistics and Storage

The commercial appearance of «Gilbert» seeds meets stringent export standards. High test weight and resistance to mechanical damage during harvesting minimize losses during transit. The seeds demonstrate excellent storage stability: when maintained at the proper moisture level (up to 8-9%), they retain their physical and chemical properties over long periods in silos without losing germination capacity or degrading prematurely.

• Optimal oil content for the processing industry.
• High transportability due to seed mass uniformity.
• Stable quality during long-term warehouse storage.
