Sunflower Hybrid 101 A

Sunflower Hybrid 101 A is a mid-early hybrid sunflower developed by domestic breeders for the Express technology with resistance to ragweed and wolfweed A-G. The maturity period is approximately 110-115 days, allowing its cultivation in various regions with different levels of agronomic technologies. The hybrid is characterized by good drought tolerance and is adapted to herbicide treatments such as Granstar, Express, and their analogs, ensuring effective weed control and increased yield when optimal planting density is maintained.

Plants of the hybrid reach a height of 170-190 cm and have flower heads with a diameter of 20-24 cm, promoting high yield formation. Sunflower Hybrid 101 A has a reliable genetic profile ensuring resistance to major sunflower diseases, including fusarium, phomopsis, powdery mildew, gray and white mold. In addition, the hybrid is resistant to the herbicide tribenuron-methyl, expanding the options for using modern plant protection agents.

The potential yield of the hybrid reaches 5.3 t/ha with oil content of 51-52%, and the protein content in seeds is 16-18%. Sunflower Hybrid 101 A is suitable for cultivation in all zones, including intensive and moderate technologies, and is recommended for use in Clearfield and Express systems. This combination of features makes this hybrid an attractive choice for farmers seeking a stable and high yield of sunflower with good oil content.
