Sunflower A 93 is a mid-season linoleic hybrid developed using Clearfield Plus technology, providing effective protection against the G race of ragweed. This hybrid exhibits high resistance to bird damage and offers dual protection through the combination of genetic resistance and the use of specialized herbicides such as Euro Lightning Plus, which broaden the spectrum of weeds controlled without harming the crop. The vegetation period is 115-118 days, allowing the hybrid to successfully adapt to continental growing conditions in forest-steppe and steppe zones.
Sunflower A 93 plants are tall with flat and slightly inclined heads, promoting optimal growth and harvest. The hybrid demonstrates excellent tolerance to major diseases, including head and stem gray mold, powdery mildew, and phomopsis, ensuring healthy plant condition throughout the entire vegetation season. The 1000-seed mass is 60-65 grams, and oil content ranges from 45 to 49%, making this sunflower attractive for producing high-quality oil.
The recommended planting density depends on moisture conditions: under adequate moisture, the optimal rate is 60-65 thousand plants per hectare, and under insufficient moisture — 50-55 thousand. The hybrid has high drought resistance and lodging resistance, further enhancing its reliability and yield stability under various climatic conditions. Thanks to its agronomic characteristics and technological advantages, sunflower A 93 is an excellent choice for farmers seeking maximum efficiency and product quality.
