Sunflower RAT P 09 is an early-maturing linoleic-type hybrid with a vegetation period of 100 to 105 days. This variety is characterized by high resistance to lodging and effectively utilizes soil moisture when planted at optimal times, promoting stable growth and good yields. Plants reach a height of about 150 cm, and seeds have a 1000-seed weight of approximately 58 grams.
Hybrid RAT P 09 has a high oil content — about 53% — making it especially valuable for sunflower oil production. It demonstrates good tolerance to root, stem, and leaf diseases, reducing the risk of yield losses and enhancing resilience to adverse conditions. Additionally, this sunflower responds well to fertilizer application, allowing agronomists to optimize agronomic practices for maximum productivity.
RAT P 09 is an excellent predecessor for winter crops, making it a beneficial component of crop rotation. Due to its characteristics and high oil content, this hybrid is widely used in agricultural production for obtaining high-quality seeds and oil. Its yield potential reaches 50 centners per hectare, confirming its efficiency and economic attractiveness for farmers.
