Sunflower RA T P 10

RA T P 10 is a medium-maturing hybrid sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) intended for cultivation in the North Caucasus and Lower Volga regions. The plant is characterized by medium to high height at maturity, green leaf coloration, and yellow disc flowers. The vegetative period of the hybrid is 117 days, enabling it to thrive under the specified climatic conditions. The 1000-seed mass varies around 51–53.5 grams, indicating good quality planting material.

The hybrid exhibits moderate resistance to major sunflower diseases, such as false powdery mildew, white mold, and phomopsis. In field conditions, it is weakly affected by dry rot but may be susceptible to rust. The resistance group to ragweed for RA T P 10 is 4, providing additional protection against parasitic plants. Leaf blistering in this hybrid is weak or moderate, and branching is absent, contributing to a compact and productive plant structure.

RA T P 10 seeds have a high oil content — approximately 48.5% — making this hybrid attractive for oil production. Marginal stripes on the seeds are weakly expressed, which is a characteristic feature of this variety. Due to its agronomic traits and adaptation to regional conditions, RA T P 10 ensures stable and high yields, averaging 23.6–23.9 centners per hectare in the North Caucasus region. This hybrid is a reliable choice for farmers seeking high-quality and productive planting material.
