Rapeseed PT293

Stability and Protection: The Potential of the PT293 Hybrid

The winter oilseed rape PT293 from Corteva is a prime example of breeding focused on minimizing risks in intensive farming conditions. As a simple linear hybrid, this material demonstrates predictable development, which is crucial for the efficient planning of agricultural workflows.

The core of this hybrid's success lies in its ability to resist key pathogens that limit crop productivity. Phoma, Sclerotinia, and Cylindrosporium — a triad of diseases capable of destroying a significant portion of the harvest — are effectively blocked by the plant's inherent genetic potential. A plant height of 150–160 cm allows for efficient harvest machinery operation, ensuring a balance between biomass and grain yield.

Agronomic Indicators and Yield Potential

The yield potential of PT293 is estimated at 40–50 c/ha, placing it in the segment of high-performance solutions for farms aiming for maximum profitability. The stability of this metric is rooted in Corteva's American breeding school, where significant attention is paid to resilience against unfavorable environmental factors.
