Rapeseed Tigris

German precision in winter oilseed rape production

The «Tigris» winter rapeseed hybrid, developed by Deutsche Saatveredelung, is a solution for growers who prioritize crop predictability. Leveraging the combined expertise of originators like Bayer Seeds and Monsanto Technology, this simple line hybrid is engineered for stability under diverse European climate conditions.

Combatting Phoma with Genetics

A standout trait of Tigris is its genetic robustness against Phoma. While many hybrids require aggressive early-stage fungicide applications, Tigris utilizes inherent resistance mechanisms to keep the canopy healthy. This makes it a cost-effective choice for farmers looking to streamline their protection programs without sacrificing yield potential.

Key Agrotechnical Features

• 30–40 days flowering window: This extended duration facilitates better pollination and more uniform pod development throughout the field.
• German Standards: Strict quality control by DSV ensures high seed vigor and uniform emergence.
• Adaptability: The hybrid performs consistently on a variety of soil types, maintaining strong oil content parameters.

Target Audience: Tigris is the optimal choice for farm managers who aim to mitigate production risks. It is designed for those who seek a balance between high-intensity agronomy and genetic reliability. If your fields are prone to Phoma pressure, Tigris provides a robust, low-maintenance foundation for your harvest.

Keep in mind that Tigris, like most premium German genetics, requires strict adherence to planting windows. It thrives best when sown in well-prepared seedbeds to ensure proper winter hardiness. It is a reliable tool rather than a high-risk experimental choice, perfect for standardized, high-output farming operations.
