SUNFIRE CL sunflower is a mid-early hybrid with a vegetation period of 116-120 days, possessing high yield potential and resistance to various adverse factors. It is developed for use in Clearfield® technology, providing resistance to herbicides with full action, particularly the imidazolinone group (e.g., Euro-Lightning®), as well as sulfonylurea herbicides based on tribenuron-methyl. This resistance enables effective weed control and increases the hybrid's adaptability to growing conditions.
The hybrid exhibits high resistance to diseases, including powdery mildew and rot, as well as to pests, significantly reducing yield losses. SUNFIRE CL has high drought tolerance, ensuring stable yields across various climatic zones, including the Central Chernozem, North Caucasus, Volga, Lower Volga, and Ural regions. Its productivity potential exceeds 40 centners per hectare, with oil content in seeds ranging from 51-52%, making it an attractive option for oilseed production.
The recommended planting density at harvest time is 50-55 thousand plants per hectare, promoting optimal growth and maximum yield. Thanks to its characteristics and adaptability, SUNFIRE CL is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve high and stable yields with quality oil.
