Kaledonia CL sunflower is a classic hybrid developed for intensive cultivation with high yield and stable productivity. It is characterized by good adaptability to various climatic conditions and resistance to major diseases, ensuring reliable growth and development of the crop in different regions. The hybrid is suitable for oil production due to its high oil content, reaching up to 50%, making it a profitable choice for farmers.
One of the key features of Kaledonia CL is its resistance to seven aggressive races of the downy mildew pathogen (ORO / A-G), significantly reducing the need for herbicide applications such as Euro-Lightning, or allowing more flexible timing and application methods. This provides additional protection for crops and reduces chemical treatment costs. The hybrid seeds are calibrated into two fractions with different thousand-seed masses, enabling selection of the optimal variant based on specific growing conditions and technologies.
Kaledonia CL is cultivated using European technologies, guaranteeing high quality and compliance with modern agronomic requirements. Due to its cross-pollination capability, it is essential to properly select neighboring crops when planting to avoid undesirable effects. Thanks to its resistance to stresses and diseases, as well as its high yield potential up to 55 ц/ha, this sunflower is an effective and reliable solution for Ukrainian farmers during the 2023-2024 growing seasons.
