Rapeseed Kapelli CS

Genetic resistance to major pathogens

The winter oilseed rape "Capelli KS" from the French breeding center Caussade Semences is a simple linear hybrid designed with a strong focus on phytosanitary stability. The core technical advantage of this hybrid is its integrated resistance to key mycoses. Originator Rene Baratin and the Caussade technical team have embedded high tolerance to Sclerotinia and Phoma into the genome. In field conditions, this minimizes the risk of premature stem cracking and lodging, allowing farmers to reduce the number of necessary fungicide applications during critical developmental stages.

Biological potential and planting density

The hybrid displays high intensity of oil accumulation, with values ranging between 45–50%. This high oil concentration combined with a yield potential of 50–60 dt/ha makes "Capelli KS" a highly effective economic asset in any crop rotation. The optimal plant population at harvest is 400,000 plants per hectare. This density allows the hybrid to effectively utilize space, developing a robust root system and a branched structure, which is critical for winter hardiness in continental climates.

Why choose Capelli KS

• Yield stability: The combination of genetic potential and disease resistance ensures predictable harvest volumes.
• French breeding quality: Utilizing original Caussade Semences lines ensures seed purity and high germination energy.
• Resource efficiency: Resistance to Phoma and Sclerotinia reduces the overall pesticide load per hectare.
