The hybrid sunflower ES ARCADIA SU is an early-maturing linoleic variety with a vegetation period of 100-105 days, characterized by high resistance to major diseases and pests. It features homozygous resistance to the herbicide tribenuron-methyl (Express PX) and tolerance to ragweed species A-G, ensuring reliable crop protection. High genetic immunity to diseases, along with drought and lodging resistance, make this hybrid particularly valuable for cultivation in various climatic conditions.
Plants reach a height of approximately 170 cm, with a flower head diameter of about 22 cm, which is half-tilted. The oil content of the seeds is 46-47%, contributing to high oil yield. Seeds are treated with complex compounds for protection and improved germination, such as Maxim XL 035 FS, TMTD, Apron XL 350 ES, and Poncho. The hybrid's initial vigor is rated at 9, ensuring good rooting and growth during early stages.
The hybrid ES ARCADIA SU is recommended for cultivation in Steppe and Forest-Steppe zones, and is suitable for Polесье. The cultivation technology involves the use of Express and Sumo systems, enabling effective weed control and optimized crop care. The recommended planting density varies depending on soil moisture: 50-55 thousand plants per hectare under insufficient moisture, and 60-65 thousand under adequate moisture. The hybrid's yield ranges from 35-45 ц/ha, with potential up to 5 т/ha, making it a profitable choice for farmers seeking stable and high yields.
