The N5LM307 hybrid sunflower is a mid-early confectionery variety developed using Clearfield® technology. This dual-line hybrid features black-seeded kernels and high adaptability to various soil-climate conditions, making it ideal for cultivation in the Polissia and Steppe regions of Ukraine. The vegetative period ranges from 105 to 115 days, and plant height reaches 145–175 cm, ensuring optimal growth and high productivity.
N5LM307 exhibits high yield potential up to 50 t/ha and oil content in seeds ranging from 44% to 59%, which distinguishes it favorably among other hybrids. The seed mass per 1,000 seeds is approximately 92–95 g, and kernel protein content reaches 23.5%. The hybrid demonstrates excellent resistance to stress factors, including drought, lodging, and various diseases, particularly false powdery mildew and moderate resistance to white mold. The seed shatter coefficient is 0.93, and the huskiness rate is 29%, facilitating ease of processing and harvesting.
The recommended planting density prior to harvest is 33–45 thousand plants per hectare, which allows optimizing yield and product quality. Due to its agronomic characteristics and disease resistance, the N5LM307 hybrid is a profitable choice for farmers aiming to achieve high-quality sunflower yields with good oil and protein content.
