Sunflower SY AMAZONIA

Sunflower seeds SY Amazonia are a mid-maturing, high-yielding linoleic-type hybrid developed by Syngenta. This hybrid demonstrates high adaptability to diverse agro-climatic conditions, particularly in forest-steppe and steppe zones of central and northern Ukraine, including hot regions of the Black Sea and Azov coasts. Due to its moderately intensive adaptation, SY Amazonia shows high growth performance even under low moisture and high solar activity conditions, making it an optimal choice for arid climates.

One of the key advantages of SY Amazonia is its high resistance to major sunflower diseases, including fusarium, phomopsis, sclerotinia, rust, and false powdery mildew, as well as strong protection against the striped flea beetle (Phyllotreta spp.). The hybrid is also resistant to lodging, which helps maintain yield under adverse weather conditions. Oil content of the seeds is 52-54%, ensuring high quality and value of the product.

To achieve maximum yield, it is recommended to follow standard soil preparation and crop rotation practices, as well as optimal planting dates. Sowing rates vary from 35,000 to 55,000 seeds per hectare depending on soil moisture levels. High early vegetative vigor promotes rapid plant development and successful weed competition. All these characteristics make SY Amazonia a reliable and effective choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality sunflower harvest.
