N 35 KL 002 is a medium-early hybrid sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), developed by the breeding center 'NOVAGRAN' and recommended for cultivation in the North Caucasus region, particularly in Rostov Oblast. The hybrid's vegetation period is 115 days, enabling a stable yield under the conditions of this region. Average seed yield reaches 31.2 centners per hectare, with a 1000-seed weight of 60.6 g. Oil content in the seeds reaches 47%, ensuring high efficiency in oil production with an oil harvest rate of 12.4 centners per hectare.
Sunflower N 35 KL 002 is distinguished by its adaptability to climatic conditions, resistance to frost and drought, making it a reliable choice for cultivation across various agroclimatic zones. The hybrid's seeds are widely used in the food industry, including culinary applications, baking, salads, and fried dishes. Thanks to breeding efforts aimed at increasing yield and oil content, as well as resistance to diseases and adverse conditions, this hybrid meets modern requirements of farmers.
To protect N 35 KL 002 sunflower crops from weeds, the herbicide Granstar is recommended, which contains the active ingredient tribenuron-methyl. This agent has systemic action and is effective against a wide spectrum of broadleaf weeds, such as dock, waterweed, and mustard. Granstar is applied at early weed growth stages and is compatible with hybrids resistant to sulfonylureas, allowing effective weed control without harming the crop. However, it is important to follow application recommendations and crop rotation guidelines to avoid negative consequences for subsequent crops.
