P 64 LE 137

Sunflower P64LE137 Pioneer is a medium-early linoleic hybrid designed for the ExpressSun herbicide technology. It features a vegetation period of about 112 days and medium plant height. This hybrid is distinguished by its high yield potential and resistance to several diseases, including false powdery mildew, phomopsis, basket and stem rot, verticillium, and leaf blade wilting. Due to its excellent control of the bollworm (strains A-G + System II), it is particularly effective in areas with high infestation rates of this pest. P64LE137 has good adaptability to dry and hot conditions, making it an optimal choice for cultivation in steppe zones with insufficient moisture. The hybrid’s drought resistance is rated at 8 points, and its oil content at 7 points, indicating high productivity and seed quality. Recommended seeding density varies depending on moisture conditions: 50-55 thousand plants per hectare under adequate moisture, and 45-50 thousand plants per hectare under insufficient moisture. For protection of crops on fields with high risk of disease such as rust, fungicides are recommended. The maximum single application rate of Express™ 75 WG herbicide is 50 grams. The hybrid should be grown avoiding fields where leaf blade wilting was previously observed. Overall, P64LE137 is a modern and reliable solution for increasing sunflower yields under challenging climatic conditions with effective pest and disease control.
