LG CORSICA CL

French breeding for maximum profitability

The winter oilseed rape hybrid LG Corsica CL by Limagrain is designed for growers who prioritize crop stability and herbicide management. By leveraging the Clearfield technology, this hybrid ensures superior control over hard-to-kill broadleaf weeds and volunteer plants, all while maintaining a high yield ceiling.

Agronomic profile and disease resistance

French breeders at Limagrain Europe have engineered a plant that shows exceptional resilience against common field pathogens. In high-humidity environments, where fungal pressure is typically intense, LG Corsica CL demonstrates strong resistance to:

• Alternaria and Phoma
• Sclerotinia
• Various forms of rot and mold

These inherited traits help reduce the dependency on intensive fungicide programs, allowing for a more cost-effective production cycle.

Productivity and quality metrics

This is an intensive-type hybrid that performs best when standard agronomic practices are strictly followed. The recommended density at harvest is 500,000 plants per hectare. Under optimal growing conditions, the yield potential is impressive, reaching 60–70 dt/ha.

Regarding quality, the seed composition meets industry standards, with a glucosinolate content of 15–16 mMol. LG Corsica CL represents a sophisticated balance between modern chemical weed control and the robust genetic heritage of Limagrain's breeding program.
