Sunflower Esaul

Stable yields for challenging growing conditions

The sunflower hybrid "Esaul", developed by Ooo Npo Triumf, is a three-line hybrid designed to deliver consistent performance in diverse agricultural environments. Created by the breeding team of A.I. Nazarov and D.A. Nazarov, this hybrid addresses the needs of modern farmers looking for a resilient crop that combines high potential with ease of management.

Biological traits and pathogen resistance

With a vegetation period ranging from 110 to 120 days, "Esaul" fits well into various crop rotation schemes. The plant reaches a height of 170–180 cm and forms a large, flattened head, ensuring high yield potential. The breeding focus on health and durability has resulted in a crop with robust natural resistance to major sunflower diseases:

• Fungal resilience: strong defense against sclerotinia and phomopsis.
• Rust prevention: proven efficacy against plant rust strains.
• Rot resistance: inherent protection against white and gray rot.
• Mildew immunity: high resistance to downy mildew and powdery mildew.
