Sunflower Enigma

Enigma is a mid-season sunflower hybrid with a vegetation period of 112–117 days and plant height of approximately 175 cm. The flower head diameter reaches 25 cm with a 45° tilt, which promotes efficient yield formation. This hybrid is characterized by high oil content in seeds, reaching 49–50%, making it attractive for producing high-quality oil.

Enigma exhibits high resistance to imidazolinic herbicides, particularly Euro-Lightning, with a maximum application rate of 1.2 L/ha. This ensures effective weed control and reduces the need for additional crop protection expenses. Additionally, the hybrid demonstrates resistance to various diseases, including fusarium, white mold, and root rot, as well as to 7 strains of thistle and new strains of false powdery mildew, guaranteeing reliable plant development and stable yields.

Enigma is suitable for cultivation in steppe and forest-steppe zones, showing high productivity even under extreme weather conditions. The potential yield of the hybrid reaches 49–52 centners per hectare at the recommended seeding rate of 50–60 thousand plants per hectare. Due to its combination of high productivity, resistance to pests and diseases, and adaptability to various climatic conditions, Enigma is an optimal choice for farmers seeking stable and high-quality yields.
