Sunflower Brigantina

Sunflower BRIGANTINA is a mid-season hybrid with a vegetative period of approximately 105-116 days, designed for intensive cultivation using the Clearfield technology. This variety is distinguished by its high yield, averaging 30.7 c/ha and reaching up to 43.3 c/ha, with a potential yield of up to 52 c/ha under favorable conditions. The plants are tall, with green leaves and yellow disc flowers, and lack branching, which facilitates agronomic management and harvest. One of the key features of BRIGANTINA is its high oil content in seeds, exceeding 50%, specifically around 51.9%, ensuring a high oil yield of up to 12.7 c/ha. The 1000-seed mass is approximately 62.6 grams, indicating the size and quality of the seed material. The variety exhibits moderate resistance to diseases such as white mold and false powdery mildew, enhancing yield stability and reducing risks of losses under adverse weather conditions. BRIGANTINA also demonstrates drought tolerance and resistance to five races of downy mildew (A-E), making it a reliable choice for cultivation under stress conditions and on various soils. Thanks to these qualities and high oil content, this sunflower is a profitable and effective solution for farmers aiming to achieve high and stable yields of oilseed crops.
