U 11 TAIMLM

Sunflower U 11 TAIMLM is a high-oleic hybrid developed using HTS (Express) technology, ensuring its high productivity and resistance to adverse conditions. This mid-season hybrid features a high oil content in seeds — from 50 to 52%, with oleic acid content reaching 86%, making it especially valuable for producing high-quality oil. The recommended seeding rate varies depending on soil moisture levels: from 40-45 thousand seeds per hectare under insufficient moisture to 55-60 thousand under adequate conditions.

Hybrid U 11 TAIMLM exhibits high resistance to major sunflower diseases, including false powdery mildew, lodging, and more than six strains of Russian bollworm, which is particularly important for regions where this pest is prevalent. Thanks to its well-developed taproot system capable of penetrating up to 3 meters deep, the plant demonstrates high drought resistance, enabling successful cultivation under low moisture conditions. For optimal results, crop rotation, planting dates, and spatial isolation from linseed sunflowers at a distance of 200-400 meters are recommended.

Sunflower is one of the main oilseed crops, with seeds containing essential fatty acids such as oleic, linoleic, and stearic acids, as well as minerals and vitamins from groups A, B, C, E, and K. This makes it not only valuable raw material for oil production but also nutritious feed for various animal species. Historically, sunflower was domesticated in North America and became widely spread in Europe from the 16th century, with oil extraction beginning in the mid-19th century. Hybrid U 11 TAIMLM combines modern agrotechnologies with the plant’s natural qualities, ensuring high yield and resistance to adverse factors.
