INV1166 CL

Technological Edge of Winter Rapeseed: INV1166 CL

Bayer's German breeding program maintains a dominant position in the Clearfield segment by providing hybrids adapted to intensive farming conditions. INV1166 CL is a linear hybrid designed to address the primary challenge of modern growers: how to maximize yields on weed-infested fields without risking crop phytotoxicity.

The reputation of this hybrid is built on its performance predictability. Unlike many early-maturing varieties, INV1166 CL demonstrates excellent plasticity, allowing farmers to adjust seeding rates between 400,000 and 500,000 plants per hectare depending on regional moisture levels and planting dates. This makes it a highly versatile tool for diverse agricultural environments.

Focus on Phytosanitary Resilience

A key factor ensuring the stability of INV1166 CL is its robust genetic resistance to phoma. In modern crop rotations, where rapeseed returns to the field frequently, pathogen pressure increases significantly. Possessing a natural defense against this disease is crucial for maintaining a yield potential of 40–50 dt/ha.

• Production System: Clearfield technology allows for effective control of a wide range of weeds, including persistent species, without suppressing crop development.
• Yield Potential: Consistently achieves 40–50 dt/ha in commercial fields when optimal cultivation practices are followed.
• Agronomics: Adaptability to a density of 400,000–500,000 plants/ha allows for flexible sowing campaign planning.

INV1166 CL is the choice for those prioritizing intensive technology. The hybrid minimizes risks associated with chemical weed management and provides a reliable barrier against fungal infections, ensuring both high quality and strong profitability per hectare.
