Rapeseed KWS VAMOS

Stable Yields within the Clearfield System

Winter oilseed rape KWS Vamos from the German breeding giant KWS is the choice for farmers who prioritize predictability and field hygiene. As a population variety, this hybrid demonstrates excellent plasticity to varying soil and climatic conditions, delivering stable results where more demanding hybrids might falter.

Technological Advantages and Protection

A key feature of KWS Vamos is its adaptation to the Clearfield technology. This enables the effective control of a wide spectrum of weeds, including problematic cruciferous species, without the risk of phytotoxicity to the crop itself. In intensive farming, this eliminates concerns regarding weed pressure during early growth stages.

• Phytosanitary Control: Genetic resistance to major pathogens (phoma, alternaria, and sclerotinia) allows for reduced expenditure on fungicide treatments, ensuring a healthy stem stand right up to harvest.
• Morphology and Harvest: With a plant height of 150-160 cm and medium branching, the crop creates an optimal architecture for mechanical harvesting. A yield potential of 40-50 c/ha, combined with high quality parameters (oil content of 40-45% and low erucic acid), makes this variety a sought-after raw material for processing plants.

Sowing Recommendations

To achieve target yields, it is recommended to maintain a sowing density of 400,000 to 500,000 plants per hectare. A 30-40 day flowering period provides an extended "window" for yield formation, which is critical under conditions of unstable spring-summer moisture. KWS Vamos is a practical tool for those seeking the right balance between technology costs and end-product quality.
