Sunflower M96CLP51

Sunflower M96CLP51 is a medium-early hybrid characterized by high yield and resistance to various adverse factors. The vegetative period ranges from 105 to 115 days, and flowering occurs between 55-62 days. The plant reaches a height of 160-165 cm and has a curved, convex head, which promotes effective seed formation.

The hybrid exhibits high tolerance to herbicides of Clearfield® Plus technology, facilitating weed control and enhancing the effectiveness of agronomic practices. Additionally, M96CLP51 is resistant to 7 races of the parasitic weed downy mildew (races A-G) and to all races of false powdery mildew (Plasmopara), significantly reducing the risk of yield losses.

The oil content of the sunflower varies between 44-52%, ensuring high oil content in the seeds. The recommended planting density depends on moisture conditions: under insufficient moisture, the optimal density is 50-60 thousand plants per hectare, while under sufficient moisture, it is 55-75 thousand plants per hectare. High resistance to stressful conditions makes this hybrid a reliable choice for various climatic zones.
