Rapeseed Sapsan is a high-yielding winter rapeseed hybrid with a number of important agronomic and technological advantages. This variety is characterized by high yield and high oil content, making it in demand for both rapeseed oil production and feed purposes. Rapeseed oil, obtained from seeds, is valued for its mild taste and rich composition of beneficial fatty acids, including omega-3 and omega-6, which contribute to maintaining cardiovascular health and normalizing blood cholesterol levels. In addition, rapeseed contains a significant amount of protein, making it an important component of compound animal feed.
The Sapsan hybrid is characterized by a medium maturation period and moderate flowering intensity, as well as optimal plant height of about 150-160 cm. It demonstrates high productivity under adequate moisture levels, which is particularly relevant for central and western regions. Rapeseed has good winter hardiness, resistance to lodging and drought, ensuring stable yields even under adverse conditions. The Safecross technology, used in the selection of this hybrid, contributes to improved oil content and overall crop productivity.
The application of Sapsan rapeseed is diverse: in addition to its use in the food industry for obtaining high-quality rapeseed oil, it is widely used in animal husbandry as a protein source in feeds. Rapeseed oil is also used in biodiesel production, which helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and decrease dependence on fossil fuels. Thanks to its agronomic characteristics and versatility, Sapsan rapeseed is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve high and quality yields.
