Hybrid sunflower N4LM408 is a mid-early linoleic variety with a vegetation period of 100-106 days. It is characterized by high yield potential up to 53 centners per hectare and high oil content in seeds — from 48 to 50% — making it a profitable choice for producing high-quality sunflower oil. Plant height reaches 170-180 cm, promoting the formation of a strong root system and sturdy stem, ensuring resistance to lodging and stress conditions. The hybrid exhibits high drought resistance (8 out of 10), stress factors (9 points), and disease resistance, including Phomopsis and white mold, ensuring stable yield under various soil-climatic conditions. Special attention is given to resistance to false powdery mildew and downy mildew, enhancing cultivation reliability in the Polissia, Forest-Steppe, and Steppe zones of Ukraine. The recommended seeding density at harvest time is 55-65 thousand plants per hectare. Hybrid N4LM408 is suitable for the EuroLighting technology, which ensures high oleic acid content in oil — up to 90% — improving the final product quality. Seeds are treated with modern protectants MAXIM XL 035FS and Cruiser, providing additional protection during early growth stages. This hybrid is an original variety with quality certifications, guaranteeing reliability and efficiency for farmers aiming to achieve high and stable sunflower yields.
