Sunflower P64LE136

Sunflower P64LE136 is a mid-season simple hybrid with a vegetation period of about 116 days, developed by the breeding service of the Pioneer® brand. This hybrid belongs to the linoleic type and is designed for herbicide technologies, providing effective protection against weeds and pests. The plant height is medium, which facilitates agronomic operations and reduces the risk of lodging.

The hybrid features high yield potential and increased oil content in seeds, making it an optimal choice for oilseed production. P64LE136 exhibits resistance to seven races of downy mildew (A-G), as well as to new races of false powdery mildew, significantly reducing crop losses from diseases. Additionally, the hybrid demonstrates excellent tolerance to leaf, stem, and head diseases, including high resistance to phomopsis, white mold, and verticillium.

The hybrid's drought tolerance is rated at 7 points, and its oil content at 8 points, indicating its ability to maintain productivity under water-stressed conditions. The recommended planting density varies depending on moisture levels: 50-55 thousand plants per hectare under adequate moisture, and 45-50 thousand plants per hectare under limited moisture. All these characteristics make P64LE136 a reliable and highly effective choice for cultivation under various climatic conditions.
