Produced by PANAM Semences, a Franco-Chilean company with experience since 1998, it controls the entire seed production process, ensuring high quality and flexibility for seasonal operations. The company’s hybrids are distinguished by high oil content and resistance to powdery mildew, making them suitable for cultivation in various climatic zones of Ukraine, including Steppe, Forest-Steppe, and Polissia. The product contains no GMOs and meets high standards of agronomists.

FR 842 LN 18 belongs to the mid-early maturing hybrids with a vegetative period of about 105 days. It demonstrates stable yields up to 52 ц/ha and high oil content — around 52%. The hybrid exhibits high drought and stress resistance, as well as resistance to downy mildew (groups A-G), powdery mildew, white and gray rots, and phomopsis. These characteristics make it the optimal choice for conventional cultivation in the Forest-Steppe and Steppe regions of Ukraine.

The hybrid is characterized by high productivity and seed quality, ensuring farmers a reliable and efficient harvest. Due to its resistance to major diseases and adverse weather conditions, FR 842 LN 18 is suitable for intensive farming and allows achieving stable results even under challenging climatic conditions. This makes it an attractive option for farmers aiming for maximum yield from sunflower crops.
