The winter rapeseed hybrid PT209 is a high-yielding and resilient variety, suitable for cultivation in all climatic zones of Ukraine. It belongs to the medium-late maturity group, characterized by early flowering and rapid spring growth, which enables effective use of the vegetation period. Plant height reaches 160-165 cm, ensuring good leaf surface area for photosynthesis and contributing to high productivity.

PT209 exhibits high drought and cold tolerance, confirmed by cold resistance ratings (7 points), drought resistance (8 points), and lodging resistance (8 points). The hybrid adapts well to various soil conditions, including light sandy soils, where it demonstrates excellent root system and rosette development. Due to its adaptability to growing conditions and good response to plant growth regulators, this rapeseed is suitable for intensive cultivation technologies and can fully realize its potential on fertile soils.

Recommended seeding rates vary depending on planting timing: early — 40-45 kg/ha, medium — 45-50 kg/ha, late — 55-60 kg/ha. High oil content in seeds makes PT209 attractive for oil production. This hybrid is successfully used in the Clearfield® production system, providing effective weed control and enabling stable high yields, reaching potential of about 68 ц/ha.
