Marco ST — this is a conventional sunflower variety developed by breeder Strube and distributed by Deleplanque. It features short and uniform growth, which simplifies care and harvest. The variety is distinguished by high oil content in seeds, making it attractive for oilseed production. Maturation period varies from early to mid-early, allowing its use in various climatic conditions.
One of the key features of Marco ST is its resistance to downy mildew, significantly reducing the risk of yield losses due to this disease. Additionally, the variety demonstrates good early development and resistance to the herbicide sulfonylurea (tribenuron-methyl), which facilitates weed control and improves the efficiency of agronomic practices. Tolerance to metribuzin also contributes to maintaining clean stands and improving crop quality.
Marco ST is suitable for cultivation in various regions due to its adaptability and resistance to diseases and adverse conditions. Its high oil content and stable yield potential make this variety a reliable choice for farmers seeking high-quality and economically viable raw material. Using Marco ST allows effectively combining traditional cultivation methods with modern agronomic technologies, ensuring stable and high yields.
