AS 33109 is a high-oleic sunflower hybrid with ultra-early maturity, recommended for cultivation in forest-steppe and steppe zones, as well as in northern regions. The vegetation period is approximately 98 days, allowing for harvest within a short timeframe. The hybrid is characterized by high initial growth energy and drought resistance, ensuring stable adaptation to various soil-climatic conditions.
AS 33109 has high yield potential and high oil content, with oil content around 50%. The 1000-seed mass is 72 grams, indicating seed size and quality. The recommended planting density at harvest time is 70-75 thousand plants per hectare under adequate moisture conditions and 60-70 thousand per hectare under insufficient moisture. The hybrid is suitable for direct seeding, simplifying agronomic practices.
To protect and enhance the hybrid's resistance, seeds are treated with a complex of agents, including Scarlet, Apron, and Semaphore, which contribute to disease protection and improved germination. Due to its characteristics, AS 33109 is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to obtain high-quality, high-oleic sunflower yields.
