Sunflower LG 58390

Sunflower LG 58390 is an early-maturing hybrid of the new generation, developed by Limagrain specifically for southern regions. It belongs to medium-height plants with a height of about 152 cm and a flower head diameter of approximately 16 cm. The hybrid is characterized by high oil content and large 1000-seed mass — around 71 g, ensuring high yield potential even under drought conditions. Thanks to the Clearfield technology, LG 58390 is resistant to herbicides of the imidazolinone group, allowing effective control of grassy weeds and ensuring clean stands.

One of the key features of LG 58390 is its genetic resistance to seven races of sunflower downy mildew (downy mildew), significantly reducing the risk of yield loss. The hybrid also exhibits high tolerance to diseases such as Fusarium and downy mildew, thanks to built-in genetic control. Drought tolerance and adaptability to various growing conditions make this sunflower a reliable choice for extreme climatic conditions in southern regions.

The early maturity allows farmers to timely clear fields and properly prepare them for winter wheat planting, enhancing the economic efficiency of crop rotation. LG 58390 demonstrates stable yields and high oil content, comparable to later hybrids, making it attractive for early sunflower cultivation. The recommended planting density varies depending on soil moisture levels, enabling optimal plant growth and development for maximum productivity.
