Rapeseed Ksaveroskyi / Ksaveryvskyi

Reliability in the field: the «Ksaverovsky» experience

When selecting winter rapeseed, the primary concern is predictability. The «Ksaverovsky» variety, developed by NUBiP of Ukraine, has proven to be a reliable performer that handles various field conditions with ease. It is a workhorse that compensates for minor agrotechnical nuances, making it a favorite for those who value stability over complex, high-maintenance crops.

Defense and Management

One of the most notable features of this hybrid is its robust immunity to phoma. In seasons with high humidity, where fungal pressure usually peaks, «Ksaverovsky» stands its ground effectively. This resistance is a significant cost-saver, allowing for a more efficient fungicide schedule.

The integration of Clearfield technology is a game-changer for fields with heavy weed pressure. Controlling volunteer crops and primary weeds with a single herbicide application simplifies the operational workload significantly. No need for complex tank mixtures that risk phytotoxicity; the crop stays clean and grows vigorously from the start.

Sowing specs and performance

• Seeding density: 400,000 to 500,000 seeds per hectare is optimal for a uniform, dense stand.
• Oil content: 35–40%, ensuring a high-quality, marketable product.
• Yield potential: 4.0–5.0 tons per hectare, provided the fertilization and sowing dates are managed correctly.

With this hybrid, it responds exceptionally well to early sowing and balanced nitrogen management. When targeting the higher end of the density spectrum (500k seeds/ha), the canopy closes quickly, which effectively shades out late-emerging weeds and facilitates a cleaner harvest. «Ksaverovsky» is the ideal choice for farmers looking for a productive, low-stress hybrid that delivers consistent results season after season.
