NA 103 A

Sunflower NA 103 A is a high-yielding hybrid with a vegetation period of approximately 103 days, classifying it as an early-maturing variety. It exhibits high resistance to imidazolinone herbicides (Clearfield®), providing effective weed control and simplifying cultivation practices. The hybrid demonstrates excellent stress tolerance, including drought resistance, lodging resistance, and resistance to diseases such as fusarium, fusarium wilt, as well as white and gray mold. This makes it a reliable choice for cultivation under various climatic conditions, including forest-steppe and steppe regions.

NA 103 A has a high yield potential, reaching up to 62 centners per hectare, with an average yield of approximately 36-38 centners per hectare. The oil content of the seeds is about 50-54%, ensuring the production of high-quality commercial oil. Plants grow to a height of 160-180 cm, have a convex flower head with a diameter of 22-24 cm, and a lodging resistance of about 20-21%. The hybrid is genetically resistant to five races of the parasitic weed dodder, significantly reducing yield losses and enhancing production stability.

Sunflower NA 103 A is adaptable to various soil conditions, allowing successful cultivation on different soil types and under limited water availability. The recommended seeding rate is 45-55 thousand plants per hectare, promoting optimal growth and maximum productivity. The hybrid's high growth energy and adaptability make it an advantageous choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality sunflower yield with high oil content.
