Sunflower AM PRESTYZh

The 2025 High-Oleic Standard

The «AM PRESTIGE» hybrid is a breeding response to the growing demand from the processing industry for high-quality raw materials with a high oleic acid content. Registered in 2025, this sunflower is aimed at farmers in the Steppe and Forest-Steppe regions who seek to produce a crop that is highly sought after in export markets and the food industry.

Processing Efficiency and Marketability

The key value of «AM PRESTIGE» lies in its suitability for deep processing. Due to its high-oleic nature, the oil from this hybrid's seeds possesses increased oxidative stability, which is critical for the production of premium vegetable oils, baby food, and confectionery products. The commodity batches are characterized by uniformity, which simplifies cleaning and calibration processes at elevators.

Logistics and Storage

The medium-early maturity group allows for the optimization of the harvest campaign, reducing the risk of losses due to over-ripening. The medium-sized, downward-facing head provides natural protection for the seeds against precipitation and birds, which directly impacts crop purity and shelf life during transport. The dense structure of the achene ensures a minimal percentage of damage during mechanized loading, making «AM PRESTIGE» a reliable asset for forming export shipments.
