Soybean Astor

Field performance: Why choose Astor by Sevita Genetics

Choosing a soybean variety is all about mitigating risks. Dealing with root rots, Rhizoctonia, and Sclerotinia can be a nightmare in a bad season, but this variety has shown consistent resilience where others might fail.

Harvestability and Grain Quality

From an operator's perspective, the physical structure of the plant is just as important as the yield potential. With a height of 70-80 cm and the lowest pod attachment at 10-12 cm, this variety is a dream to harvest. It minimizes header losses significantly, meaning you spend less time worrying about adjustments and more time getting the crop into the bin.

• Maturity: 100-110 days, offering a great window for efficient harvest scheduling.
• Disease resistance: High tolerance to Phytophthora, which cuts down on the need for extra fungicide applications throughout the season.
• Grain quality: With 41-43% protein and 20-21% oil content, this crop hits the sweet spot for buyers.

Working with Astor has been a straightforward experience. It’s a variety that doesn't need constant "babysitting" to perform well. For any grower looking to combine consistent agronomic traits with reliable market quality, this Sevita Genetics variety is a solid, professional choice that proves its worth at the scale.
