Memphis

Rapeseed Memphis is a mid-season classical hybrid selection by Zaatbau, featuring high yield potential up to 60 t/ha and high oil content reaching 49.3%. This hybrid is distinguished by its very high winter hardiness, enabling successful cultivation in the forest-steppe and Polissia regions. Plants reach a height of 170-180 cm, and the 1000-seed weight varies from 4.2 to 5.3 grams. Memphis is characterized by resistance to lodging and pod cracking, which contributes to maintaining yield and improving its quality.

One of the key features of rapeseed Memphis is its high resistance to major diseases such as phomopsis, sclerotinia, alternaria, and downy mildew. On the resistance scale, the hybrid scores 7-8 out of 9 for various diseases and stress factors, ensuring stable yields even under adverse conditions. Rapid vegetation recovery in spring and excellent development in autumn contribute to forming strong pods and high yields.

For optimal cultivation of rapeseed Memphis, it is recommended to follow sowing dates: early (August 10-15), optimal (August 20-30), and late (September 1-10). The seeding rate depends on sowing dates and ranges from 350,000 to 600,000 plants per hectare. This approach allows adapting sowing to specific climatic conditions and ensures maximum productivity of the crop.
