DELTA SOL — this is a medium-early, high-yielding hybrid of linoleic sunflower, intended for cultivation in the Central Chernozem region. The vegetation period is 105-110 days, which allows for a stable harvest at optimal times. The first-generation hybrid is characterized by large seed size and high ecological plasticity, ensuring adaptation to various growing conditions and resistance to adverse environmental factors.
One of the key features of DELTA SOL is the high oil content in the seeds — oil content reaches 54.7%, making it a high-oil variety. The potential seed yield may reach 5.3 tons per hectare, and oil yield — 15.8 centners per hectare. The hybrid demonstrates resistance to major sunflower diseases, such as rust, false powdery mildew, fomosis, fomopsis, and downy mildew, as well as to sulfonylurea herbicides, which simplifies crop protection and reduces yield losses.
In addition, DELTA SOL has high drought resistance, resistance to lodging and shattering, which contributes to preserving the quality and quantity of the harvest under adverse weather conditions. Thanks to these characteristics, the hybrid is a reliable choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality sunflower harvest with high oil content.
