P 64 LC 108 — a mid-season simple sunflower hybrid of the linoleic type, developed using EuroLighting technology. Plants of this hybrid have a well-developed root system and medium size, which contributes to the formation of a large number of seeds in the head. The vegetative period ranges from 109 to 125 days, depending on the growing region. The hybrid is characterized by a high yield potential, reaching up to 52 c/ha, and the oil content in the seeds can reach 52%, making it attractive for the production of high-quality oil.
Hybrid P 64 LC 108 has high resistance to drought and lodging, ensuring crop stability under complex climatic conditions. It is tolerant to common leaf and head diseases, including phoma, phomopsis, and white mold, with moderate resistance to the latter two. Special attention is paid to resistance to sunflower downy mildew — the hybrid is resistant to 7 races (A-G), which significantly reduces the risk of infection by this parasitic weed. The mass of 1000 seeds is about 60.5 g, indicating good quality of seed material.
The recommended growing zones for hybrid P 64 LC 108 include the Forest-Steppe and Steppe of Ukraine, as well as the Rostov region and the North Caucasus region of Russia. The hybrid has been successfully adapted to various soil and climatic conditions of these regions and shows stable yield performance. Due to the combination of high productivity, disease resistance, and tolerance to adverse factors, P 64 LC 108 is a reliable choice for agricultural producers focused on obtaining high-quality and high-efficiency sunflower crops.
