LS 45 K 2

LS 45 K 2 is a mid-season sunflower hybrid intended for cultivation in the Central Chernozem and North Caucasus regions. The vegetation period is approximately 115 days, ensuring optimal seed maturity under the specified climatic conditions. The hybrid is characterized by high yield: in the Central Chernozem region, it reaches 31 centners per hectare, and in the North Caucasus region — 25 centners per hectare. The 1000-seed mass varies from 54.3 to 55.9 grams, and the oil content in the seeds ranges from 42.4% to 46.7%, making this hybrid attractive for oil production.

The LS 45 K 2 hybrid exhibits high resistance to adverse environmental factors. It has enhanced drought tolerance and resistance to sunburn, allowing successful cultivation under variable climate conditions. The vegetation period from emergence to physiological maturity lasts about 98 days, and to technical maturity — 122 days. The hybrid is genetically resistant to major races of downy mildew (A-E) and demonstrates high field resistance to diseases such as false powdery mildew, phomopsis, and rot.

Additionally, LS 45 K 2 has high technological cultivation efficiency and productivity potential up to 4.5 tons per hectare. The oil content in the seeds ranges between 48-50%, ensuring high efficiency during processing. These characteristics make the hybrid an attractive choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality sunflower crop with excellent oil content and resistance to stress factors.
