Sunflower STARFIRE

Sunflower STARFIRE is a high-yielding hybrid adapted to various humidity conditions. The plant exhibits high resistance to lodging, heat, and drought, ensuring a stable yield even under challenging climatic conditions. The hybrid shows excellent tolerance to fusarium and sunflower head sclerotinia, enhancing its disease resistance and contributing to seed quality preservation. Its medium-early maturity allows effective planning of agronomic activities and timely harvest. High oil content in seeds, reaching 50-55%, makes this sunflower attractive for oil production.

The STARFIRE cultivation technology is based on sulfonylurea herbicides, providing effective control of broadleaf weeds without harming the crop. The hybrid is resistant to herbicides based on tribenuron-methyl, allowing the use of modern plant protection technologies and increasing crop productivity. Seeds are large and black, facilitating sowing and ensuring good germination. High yield potential, reaching 5.5 tons per hectare, makes STARFIRE a profitable choice for farmers aiming for maximum output from their crops.

The STARFIRE hybrid is characterized by a wide cultivation zone and is suitable for use in soils with medium to high mineral nutrition. It is resistant to various races of parasitic plant — Russian thistle, significantly reducing the risk of yield losses. The sunflower head is downward-facing, promoting better seed maturation and harvest. Thanks to its characteristics and adaptability, STARFIRE is a reliable and efficient solution for modern farmers focused on high-quality and stable production.
