Sunflower Select

Optimized for Clearfield Technology

The «Select» sunflower hybrid represents a reliable choice for intensive farming operations, particularly those relying on the Clearfield production system. Originating from Russian breeding programs, this hybrid was developed to meet the demand for high-oil crops capable of surviving aggressive herbicide applications while maintaining yield integrity.

Key Agronomic Traits

With a vegetation period of 110–120 days, «Select» fits perfectly into the standard agricultural calendar of its region of origin. Its primary competitive advantage is genetic resistance to imidazoline-based herbicides, allowing farmers to control weeds and broomrape in a single pass without compromising crop health.

Economic and Technical Profile

• Oil Content: 50–55%, consistently high across various soil types.
• Head Morphology: Large, filled heads, designed for optimal seed weight distribution.
• Herbicide Compatibility: Full tolerance to Euro-Lightning protocols.

«Select» is characterized by a balance between maturity speed and yield potential. It acts as a robust solution for medium-to-large farms seeking predictable performance. By providing high oil output per hectare, it remains a consistent favorite for processing facilities looking for high-quality feedstock.
