Sunflower LG 50529 SX is a medium-early hybrid with high resistance to various diseases, including downy mildew A-G, verticillium wilt, and dry rot. It is also tolerant to herbicides based on tribenuron-methyl, facilitating weed control in crops. The hybrid exhibits high stability and adaptability to stressful and drought-prone conditions, making it an optimal choice for cultivation in unfavorable climates such as the Volga, Siberian, Ural, and Southern regions.
LG 50529 SX belongs to the medium-maturing group and has an extensive growth type. It is recommended to maintain optimal seeding density at harvest—50-55 thousand plants per hectare—and avoid overcrowding and excessive nitrogen fertilizer application to achieve maximum productivity. The average flower head diameter is about 17 cm, and the 1000-seed weight ranges from 52 to 65 grams. Plant height reaches 180-190 cm, promoting good development and yield formation.
The hybrid demonstrates high yield potential, with an average yield of 21.5 centners per hectare, and a maximum yield of up to 31.6 centners. Seeds contain approximately 44.6% oil, making them a valuable raw material for oil production. Due to its characteristics and resistance to abiotic stresses, LG 50529 SX is a reliable and efficient solution for farmers aiming to obtain a stable and high-quality sunflower crop.
