Rapeseed Arsenal

Arsenal — a high-yielding winter rapeseed hybrid developed by the French company Limagrain and adapted for cultivation in the climatic conditions of Ukraine, particularly in the Polissia and Forest-Steppe zones. This variety features a medium-early sowing date and high compensatory ability, enabling successful cultivation even under delayed sowing. The recommended seeding rate is 350,000 to 500,000 seeds per hectare.

The Arsenal hybrid exhibits high resistance to various adverse factors, including cold, drought, lodging, as well as diseases — white rot, fusarium, and verticillium. Its tolerance to fusarium is rated 9 out of 9, and to verticillium — 7 out of 9, ensuring stable yields and reducing the risk of losses. The yield potential reaches 70 centners per hectare, making this variety attractive for farmers focused on high productivity.

The quality of Arsenal rapeseed is characterized by high oil content — from 47 to 50%, with glucosinolate content not exceeding 15 mmol per gram, positively influencing the nutritional and technological properties of the product. The high content of oleic acid in the oil makes it in demand for producing vegetable oils and food products. Thus, Arsenal represents a reliable and efficient choice for agricultural production, ensuring high yield and quality of raw material.
