ED 399

Stable yields with Clearfield technology

The ED 399 sunflower hybrid from Ooo Aktiv Agro is a result of advanced selection efforts, combining the expertise of the Pustovoit All-Russian Research Institute of Oil Crops and international partners. This simple hybrid is designed for farmers who prioritize weed control and harvest predictability.

Key advantages

• Technological flexibility: Complete resistance to imidazolinone herbicides (Clearfield technology) allows for effective control of stubborn weeds and broomrape directly during the vegetation period.
• Oil content: With an oil content of 45-50%, this hybrid is highly attractive to processors, ensuring high marketability of the crop.
• Adaptability: The vegetation period of 120-130 days allows for an optimal balance between planting and harvesting, ensuring well-filled seed heads even in variable climate conditions.

Who is this hybrid for?

ED 399 is an ideal choice for farms in areas with high weed pressure where traditional soil-applied herbicides fail to provide the desired results. It demonstrates strong potential under intensive cultivation practices. A factor to consider is the need for strict crop rotation due to the residual effect of IMI herbicides, which should be taken into account when planning next year's crop rotation.
