ES Mentor — an early-maturing soybean variety from the legume family, developed by Euralis. This variety is characterized by high yield potential, reaching up to 4.5 tons per hectare, and a short vegetation period of 105 to 115 days. Plants grow to a height of 77–80 cm, with lower pods positioned approximately 11 cm above the ground. Seeds are yellow with a light hilum and spherical-oval shape, with a thousand-seed weight of approximately 198 grams. ES Mentor has high oil content — around 20.5–20.6%, and protein content reaches 42.3%, making it especially attractive for the food industry and further processing.
The variety exhibits high resistance to a broad spectrum of diseases, including sclerotinia and Septoria, as well as excellent tolerance to stress conditions, lodging, and shattering. Thanks to these qualities, ES Mentor adapts well to various soil-climate conditions and can consistently deliver high yields even under adverse weather conditions. High initial growth energy contributes to successful germination and plant development.
The recommended planting density is 450,000 to 550,000 germinating seeds per hectare, with row spacing from 19 to 45 cm, ensuring optimal land use and maximum productivity. ES Mentor is a leader in early-maturing soybean varieties, combining technological efficiency, stability, and high product quality.
