LK PROGRESS is a hybrid sunflower developed for use in the EuroLighting technology, providing high resistance to weeds, including ragweed, due to immunity to the EuroLighting herbicide. This approach allows cultivation even on heavily infested fields, ensuring a stable and high yield. The hybrid is characterized by good adaptability to various climatic conditions, making it suitable for cultivation in different regions.
LK PROGRESS plants feature a strong root system and robust stems, contributing to high resistance to lodging and adverse weather conditions, including drought. High tolerance to diseases such as downy mildew, white mold, and others ensures the health of crops and stable yields. The seeds of the hybrid have good oil content, making it attractive for oil production.
The vegetative period of the hybrid is approximately 104–110 days, with flowering beginning 68–70 days after emergence. Average plant height reaches 160–175 cm, and flower head diameter is 22–24 cm. High oil content in seeds, reaching 51–52%, confirms the efficiency of using LK PROGRESS in oil production. Due to its combination of high yield, weed and disease resistance, as well as adaptability to climatic conditions, this hybrid is a profitable choice for modern agricultural enterprises.
