Sunflower LG58390

Sunflower LG58390 is a medium-early hybrid developed by Limagrain, designed for cultivation in southern regions prone to drought and aggressive sunflower flea beetle races. The plant is medium-height, reaching approximately 152-155 cm, with a flat head of about 16 cm in diameter. The hybrid exhibits high initial growth energy and plasticity, ensuring good adaptation to various soil-climatic conditions and stable yields even under extreme conditions. The vegetation period is approximately 108 days, allowing early field clearance and efficient preparation for winter wheat planting.

LG58390 is grown using Clearfield technology (under Evrolighting) and possesses genetic resistance to 7 races of sunflower flea beetle (A-G), as well as to imidazolinone herbicides. The hybrid is also resistant to false powdery mildew due to SUNEO technology and has genetic control against mildew (MGP). High drought tolerance, cold resistance, and lodging resistance make this sunflower a reliable choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality yield.

Moreover, LG58390 demonstrates high tolerance to major sunflower diseases, including fusarium, fusariosis, root and head white rot, anthracnose, and dry rot. The 1000-seed mass is approximately 71-72 grams, and the oil content in the seeds is high, enhancing the hybrid's economic attractiveness. Optimal planting density should be maintained to achieve maximum productivity. This hybrid is high-yielding and stable within its maturity group, confirmed by its yield potential and resistance to stress factors.
