IA 1079 DMR

French breeding for reliable yields

The IA 1079 DMR sunflower from Lidea is the result of intensive breeding work by the originator, Rustica Semences, aimed at creating a flexible hybrid capable of delivering predictable results even with moderate agricultural inputs. In changing climate conditions, this hybrid stands out for its morphology: a medium-sized, slightly convex head that effectively resists lodging and promotes uniform seed maturation.

Morphotype features

Visually, IA 1079 DMR is easily identifiable in the field thanks to its gray-striped, narrow egg-shaped seeds. This seed geometry not only ensures good filling but also facilitates high-quality threshing during harvest, minimizing waste. The medium size of the head is a strategic advantage; it does not overload the stem during the filling period, which is crucial in regions prone to strong winds.

Who is this hybrid for?

• Farmers focused on risk mitigation: the hybrid demonstrates high adaptability to various soil types.
• Producers looking for a balance between maturation speed and 1000-seed weight.
• Operations implementing strategies with moderate pesticide management.

The strength of IA 1079 DMR is its predictability. If you are looking for a reliable "workhorse" that does not require surgical precision in cultivation but consistently delivers a high-quality crop with excellent grain quality, this Lidea product will be a solid foundation for your agricultural business.
