The sunflower POLKA CL is a hybrid developed using the EuroLighting (Clearfield®) technology, which ensures high resistance to herbicides and effective control of weeds, including dodder. This allows the crop to be grown in fields with high infestation levels, improving the phytosanitary condition of the soil and increasing overall yield. The seeds of this sunflower are intended for producing oilseed products and can be used for various agricultural purposes.
The hybrid belongs to the intensive type with a potential yield of up to 59 c/ha and falls into the maturity group with a maturation period of 114-117 days, ensuring a stable yield even under changing climatic conditions. High oil content, reaching 55%, makes this sunflower particularly attractive for oil production. Plants reach a height of 180 to 190 cm, which contributes to efficient use of field area. POLKA CL has resistance to major sunflower diseases and tolerance to various dodder races (A-G+), reducing the need for frequent pesticide treatments.
Thus, the sunflower POLKA CL combines modern agrotechnologies and high agronomic indicators, making it an optimal choice for cultivation in the Forest-Steppe and Polesie zones. Its application contributes to the production of high-quality oilseed raw material with good yield and resistance to adverse factors, which distinguishes this hybrid favorably in the agricultural products market.
