3023 B

French expertise in ultra-early sunflower hybrids

The 3023 B sunflower hybrid from the French breeding company Laboulet Semences is a strategic asset for farmers aiming for rapid crop rotation and maximum flexibility in field management. Developed in the heart of France, this hybrid addresses the modern challenge of shortening growing seasons while maintaining high quality. With a maturity window of just 80-90 days, 3023 B allows growers to harvest early, effectively clearing fields for subsequent seasonal operations.

Technical efficiency and field performance
