Sunflower ES ELLINIS is a medium-early hybrid with a vegetation period of 105-110 days, developed using Clearfield Plus technology. It features high yield potential, reaching up to 56 c/ha, and is suitable for cultivation in various climatic conditions, including the Southern, Central Chernozem, and Volga regions. The hybrid exhibits high resistance to ragweed (races A-F) and diseases, ensuring stable yields even under adverse conditions. Its high drought and heat tolerance make ES ELLINIS a reliable choice for intensive cultivation methods.
Sunflower seeds have a thousand-grain weight of 52 to 60 grams, and plants are of medium height with a downward-facing head. The recommended sowing rate varies depending on soil moisture: 55-60 thousand seeds/ha under insufficient moisture, and 60-65 thousand/ha under adequate moisture. The oil content of the hybrid is 47-49%, ensuring high oil content in seeds and contributing to the production of high-quality oil without phytotoxicity after herbicide treatment.
ES ELLINIS is suitable for intensive farming systems due to its stress tolerance and high disease resistance. It is a linoleic-type hybrid, making it popular for producing oil with optimal characteristics. Seed packaging contains 150,000 seeds, which is convenient for large-scale planting. All these qualities make ES ELLINIS an effective and reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve high and stable sunflower yields.
