It has a medium maturity period of 105 to 110 days and high resistance to various diseases, including seven races of downy mildew (A-G), rust, and verticillium. Due to its high drought resistance and ability to adapt to challenging weather and agronomic conditions, this hybrid ensures stable and high yields even under adverse conditions.

The recommended planting density at harvest is 60–65 thousand plants per hectare, which optimizes yield and product quality. The RA T P 06 hybrid is characterized by high oil content in seeds — around 42.3%, making it attractive for oil production. Yield varies by region: in Krasnodar Krai, it reaches up to 38 centners per hectare; in Stavropol Krai — up to 40 centners per hectare; in Saratov Oblast — around 31 centners per hectare; and in Ulyanovsk Oblast — around 28 centners per hectare. High productivity and stable performance make this hybrid a profitable choice for farmers seeking high-quality and reliable sunflower yields.
