MARCIANO ST is a high-oleic sunflower variety with excellent resistance to leaf mildew with an M9 resistance profile. It is classified as mid-season maturing, allowing effective planning of agronomic activities and ensuring a stable harvest at optimal times. Due to its tolerance to metlika, MARCIANO ST demonstrates high resistance to common pests, reducing the need for intensive chemical protection.
The genetics of the MARCIANO ST variety were developed by the breeder Strube and distributed by Deleplanque, guaranteeing high seed quality and adaptation to various climatic conditions, including those of the French market. The high oleic acid content in the oil makes this sunflower particularly valuable for producing oil with improved technological and sensory characteristics.
The variety is recommended for cultivation in regions with diverse soil-climate conditions due to its disease and pest resistance. MARCIANO ST is suitable for use in modern sunflower cultivation technologies, ensuring good phytosanitary conditions of crops from germination to harvest. The mid-season maturing period helps avoid adverse weather conditions during flowering and ripening, which is especially important for increasing yield and product quality.
