Sunflower LG5400HO

The LG5400HO sunflower variety is a mid-early hybrid with high resistance to various diseases and adverse conditions. The vegetation period is approximately 111-115 days, allowing effective use in various climatic zones, including steppes, forest-steppes, and meadows. Plant height reaches about 165 cm, and the flower head diameter is approximately 15.7 cm, contributing to good yield formation.

The hybrid exhibits high resistance to imidazolinone group herbicides and to the parasite A-G of the genus A-G, significantly reducing the risk of yield losses. Additionally, LG5400HO shows tolerance to major sunflower diseases such as phomopsis, phomosis, sclerotinia, and false powdery mildew, ensuring product stability and quality. Oil content in seeds is at the level of 48-50%, making this variety attractive for oilseed production.

The recommended planting density depends on soil moisture levels: under adequate moisture, the optimal density is 55-60 thousand plants per hectare, and under insufficient moisture — 50-55 thousand. The 1000-seed mass is approximately 71 grams, indicating good seed size and quality. All these characteristics make LG5400HO a reliable choice for farmers seeking high and stable sunflower yields with high oil content.
