Sunflower F 76900

F 76900 is a high-yielding intensive-type sunflower hybrid designed to produce a stable and high yield even under challenging climatic conditions. It is characterized by rapid early growth, a well-developed root system, and a strong stem, which ensures high resistance to lodging. The hybrid's vegetation period ranges from 115 to 120 days, and plant height reaches 165-180 cm. The head is large, flat-shaped with a diameter of 18-24 cm, and the plant has high leafiness, which promotes efficient photosynthesis and seed development.

F 76900 seeds have high mass — 61-62 grams per 1000 seeds, with a shell percentage of 99.7% and oil content of 21-22%. The oil mass fraction in the seeds ranges from 50 to 52%, making this hybrid especially attractive for oilseed applications. The genetic yield potential reaches 60 centners per hectare, while the hybrid demonstrates high drought tolerance and low shattering, which is crucial for maintaining yield under adverse conditions.

F 76900 exhibits high resistance to major sunflower diseases, including false powdery mildew, gray and white mold, rust, and seven races of Sclerotinia (A-G+). The hybrid is tolerant to herbicides based on tribenuron-methyl, such as Granstar and Express, enabling effective plant protection technologies and increased yield. It is well-adapted to various agronomic conditions, including conventional cultivation techniques and systems like EuroLightning and Granstar, and positively responds to high agrofunds and mineral fertilizers.
