P64HH98 sunflower hybrid was developed by Pioneer, a global leader in seed agricultural genetics. This medium-maturing, simple hybrid is characterized by high oleic acid content and high oil content, rated at 6 out of 9. The vegetation period ranges from 116 to 125 days, allowing effective use in various climatic conditions.
P64HH98 exhibits high resistance to five races of downy mildew (A–E), and is tolerant to both foliar and stem forms of fusarium and white mold. A key advantage of this hybrid is its high drought tolerance, rated at the highest score of 9. Thanks to these characteristics, the hybrid performs well in dry regions and is suitable for cultivation in Steppe, Forest-Steppe, and Polissia zones.
For optimal growth, specific agronomic conditions should be followed: avoid planting sunflower after dicotyledonous crops and adhere to recommended planting densities — up to 55,000 plants per hectare in dry regions and up to 60,000 per hectare with adequate moisture. The hybrid belongs to the elite class and is a reliable choice for obtaining high-quality oilseed yields.
