Sunflower LG5687HO

LG5687HO — a mid-late sunflower hybrid, distinguished by high yield and stability under various climatic conditions. It is recommended for cultivation in northern regions of Ukraine, including the forest-steppe, southern Polissia, and northern Steppe. The hybrid is registered in Italy and France, confirming its international recognition and quality. The average plant height is about 150 cm, and the flower head diameter reaches 16 cm, contributing to good yield formation.

This hybrid is characterized by high oil content in seeds with increased oleic acid content, making it especially valuable for producing high-quality oil. LG5687HO exhibits tolerance to a broad spectrum of thrips (A-G) and resistance to major sunflower diseases, such as powdery mildew, frogepsis, white mold of the head and stem. High disease resistance and stress tolerance ensure a stable yield even under adverse weather conditions.

The hybrid is recommended for intensive and classical cultivation technologies with optimal planting density depending on soil moisture levels. Under sufficient moisture, a density of up to 57 thousand plants per hectare is recommended, while under insufficient moisture — 45-50 thousand. The yield potential of LG5687HO reaches 40 centners/ha in central and northern regions of Ukraine, making it a profitable choice for farmers aiming for high and stable sunflower yields.
