Hipersol

Genetic Potential and Phytosanitary Protection

The «Gipersol» sunflower hybrid, developed by the Polish breeding center KHBC Sp. z o.o., is a mid-season variety engineered for stable performance in temperate climatic zones. With a vegetation period of 110–120 days, this hybrid shows exceptional resilience to environmental stressors, providing farmers with reliable consistency throughout the growing season.

Morphology and Yield Characteristics

The plant reaches a height of 160–170 cm. The medium-sized head features a slightly convex shape on the seed side, a design that facilitates efficient threshing and significantly minimizes harvesting losses. With an oil content ranging from 45% to 55%, this hybrid is positioned as a premium choice for high-quality oil production.

Pathogen Resistance Profile

KHBC's breeding approach for «Gipersol» focuses on robust genetic resistance to the most destructive sunflower pathogens. The hybrid demonstrates strong defenses against:

• Sclerotinia (white rot) — protecting the integrity of the stem and head.
• Phomopsis and Phoma — effectively inhibiting necrotic stem and leaf lesions.
• Powdery mildew and various rot species — reducing the necessity for intensive chemical intervention.

By integrating these protective traits, «Gipersol» serves as an efficient tool for reducing production costs and maximizing profitability per hectare, as it allows growers to maintain crop health with reduced fungicide application, even under challenging agricultural conditions.
