Sunflower TELMO ST

Reliable Yields with German Genetics

When it comes to the 'Telmo ST' sunflower hybrid from Strube, farmers evaluate it based on harvest results rather than marketing brochures. This hybrid is forgiving of minor technological errors and provides excellent predictability in the field. A vegetation period of 110-120 days allows for precise planning of the harvest campaign, avoiding critical autumn rainfall.

Crop Health as the Foundation of Profit

Every agronomist’s primary concern is disease, which can diminish profits before seed filling even begins. With 'Telmo ST,' the pathogen issue is effectively managed. Its genetic resistance to a complex of rot diseases—white and gray—along with immunity to downy mildew, phomopsis, and phoma, allows for savings on fungicide applications. The plant is sturdy, with a basket shaped to slightly convex, which minimizes the risk of seed soaking during heavy rain.

Field Performance

The CLEARFIELD (EURO-LIGHTNING) herbicide protection system is the industry standard for those managing both weeds and broomrape simultaneously. This hybrid handles herbicide treatment perfectly without growth stagnation. At the end of the season, you will benefit from an oil content of 45-50%, which translates directly into higher market prices. It is the ideal choice for those who rely on German breeding when stability in unpredictable climates is paramount.
