Dandie

The winter rape hybrid Dandie from producer DSV is a modern breeding development focused on stability and high yield. This mid-late maturing hybrid is characterized by intensive root system development in autumn, ensuring good establishment and resilience to adverse conditions. Plants form medium-sized but strong leaf plates, promoting effective photosynthesis and optimal nitrogen utilization for biomass, branch, and pod formation. The tall plant type with well-lit foliage ensures uniform and synchronized crop maturity.

One of the key features of Dandie is its genetic resistance to pests and diseases, particularly to fusarium, due to the presence of the RLM 7 gene. This allows plants to quickly recover from damage and maintain high yield potential even under adverse conditions. The hybrid demonstrates high resistance to lodging, drought, and cold, making it a reliable choice for various agro-climatic zones. Resistance to major rape diseases at the 8-point level and high compensatory ability ensure stable and high-quality yields.

The yield potential of Dandie reaches 70 centners per hectare, confirming its high productivity. The hybrid is recommended for sowing at a rate of 400-500 thousand seeds per hectare, promoting optimal plant stand and maximum utilization of soil and light resources. Due to its combination of high winter hardiness, stress resistance, and balanced development, Dandie is a promising solution for farmers aiming to achieve predictable, high-quality winter rape yields.
