Rapeseed INV1120

Technological potential of winter rapeseed INV1120

German breeding by Bayer in the INV1120 model focuses on population stability. Unlike intensive hybrid types, this varietal form demonstrates exceptional plasticity, which is critical for farms operating in high-risk climatic zones.

Phytosanitary resistance and Phoma control

The key engineering objective in the development of INV1120 was minimizing losses from fungal diseases. The agronomic profile includes increased resistance to Phoma stem canker. A genetic barrier inhibits pathogen development during early vegetation stages and flowering, preserving the integrity of the stem's vascular system and preventing lodging before harvest.

Sowing density recommendations

The technical cultivation guidelines involve varying the plant stand density based on soil conditions and sowing timing:

• Optimal range: 400,000 to 500,000 viable seeds per hectare.
• This density allows the variety to maximize photosynthetic area utilization and develop a robust, branched structure capable of supporting yields of 40–50 c/ha.

Choosing INV1120 is justified for agronomists seeking predictable results with minimal risks compared to highly intensive hybrids that are sensitive to environmental fluctuations.
