DK Extron is a mid-early winter rapeseed hybrid, distinguished by stable high yield and high winter hardiness among classical varieties. The plant forms a strong root system and reaches a height of about 150 centimeters, contributing to its resilience and resistance to adverse weather conditions, including drought and high temperatures. Due to its high sensitivity to cultivation technology intensification, the hybrid allows efficient use of modern agronomic methods to increase productivity.
DK Extron seeds have high oil content — from 47.5% to 48.5% — while glucosinolate levels are guaranteed and erucic acid content does not exceed 0.5%, making the product high-quality and in demand in food and industrial sectors. Low seed moisture at harvest (6-8%) and synchronized, rapid seed filling ensure ease and efficiency of harvest. High thousand-grain weight indicates large seed size and good seed quality.
The hybrid is adapted for cultivation on various soil types and is non-demanding regarding soil composition, although it negatively reacts to dense planting. High autumn growth rates allow extending the sowing period, and the possibility of late harvest ensures flexibility in agronomic practices. All these characteristics make DK Extron a reliable choice for agronomists aiming to achieve high-quality rapeseed yields.
