Sunflower VK 305 VS

VK 305 VS is a high-yielding sunflower hybrid designed for oil production. It belongs to the mid-early maturity group with a vegetation period of approximately 110-116 days, enabling effective use in various climatic zones, including forest-steppe and steppe regions. The hybrid is characterized by high seed oil content, reaching 49-52%, and optimal huskiness of about 25%, ensuring high processing efficiency and production of quality oil.

A key feature of VK 305 VS is its resistance to various biotic stresses. The hybrid exhibits genetic resistance to sunflower downy mildew (including 7 strains A-G) and to the pathogen causing false powdery mildew. Additionally, it demonstrates high resistance to lodging, drought, and lodging, significantly enhancing crop stability under adverse conditions. Another important advantage is the compatibility with post-emergence sulfonylurea herbicides based on tribenuron-methyl, facilitating weed control and promoting crop health.

VK 305 VS is genetically close to the hybrid 'Tayzar' and belongs to simple hybrids with high yield potential — from 35 to 45 centners per hectare. Thanks to its high oil content and resistance to major diseases and pests, this hybrid is a reliable choice for producers aiming to obtain high-quality and stable sunflower yields. Utilization of modern cultivation technologies and protective measures allows to fully exploit the potential of VK 305 VS and ensure efficient oil production.
