R 8035 MJ

R 8035 MJ is a mid-early hybrid sunflower for oilseed production, characterized by high drought resistance and disease resistance. It features high nectar productivity and tolerance to imidazolinone herbicides, enabling effective weed control during cultivation. The hybrid is recommended for cultivation in steppe and forest-steppe zones, where it demonstrates stable yields exceeding 40 c/ha.

The distinctive feature of R 8035 MJ is its high oleic acid content — up to 95% — making it a high-oleic sunflower. This level of monounsaturated fatty acids, Omega-3, sets it apart from traditional varieties, enhancing the nutritional quality of the oil. High natural antioxidant content, including vitamin E, helps preserve the beneficial properties of the oil during frying and processing, while also reducing the formation of harmful trans fats. Due to these qualities, oil from this hybrid has a long shelf life, increasing its commercial attractiveness.

Hybrid R 8035 MJ is characterized by high oil content and resistance to major sunflower diseases, including downy mildew and rust. It is well-adapted to moderate and insufficiently moist conditions, ensuring stable yields even in drought-prone areas. Additionally, seeds grown under such conditions can be used as raw material for biodiesel production, expanding the application potential of this crop.
