MAG 15 R is a mid-early sunflower hybrid designed for cultivation in various climatic conditions, including the North Caucasus and Ural regions, as well as the Krasnodar Territory and Orenburg Oblast. The hybrid’s growing period is approximately 108-113 days, allowing it to mature successfully within the mid-early maturity group. The 1000-seed mass reaches 49 grams, and the oil content in the seeds is about 48%, making this hybrid attractive for producers focused on obtaining high-quality oilseed.
The MAG 15 R hybrid exhibits high resistance to adverse weather conditions, including drought, due to its maximum drought resistance rating. It possesses genetic resistance to races A-E of downy mildew and moderate resistance to gray mold, ensuring stable yields even under extensive cultivation practices. Additionally, the hybrid is tolerant to the herbicide Granstar at a rate of 50 g/ha, simplifying weed control and reducing agronomic costs.
The yield potential of MAG 15 R reaches 55 centners per hectare, and the hybrid can fully realize its genetic potential even under challenging conditions. This makes it an optimal choice for agricultural producers seeking stable and high yields with minimal input and in regions with unfavorable climatic conditions. Its high oil content and adaptability to various soils and weather conditions broaden its applicability across different agricultural zones.
