PS 652

Consistent performance with minimal maintenance

When selecting the PS 652 sunflower hybrid from Ooo Aktiv Agro, our priority was crop predictability in challenging field conditions. It is a solid, professional-grade choice for those who want to avoid constant anxiety over disease pressure. The main advantage of the PS 652 is its robust immunity. In our experience, in fields with high infection risks, we practically forgot about downy mildew (peronosporosis), phomopsis, and phoma. The crops remain clean until harvest, which significantly saves the budget on fungicide treatments.

Ease of management

Resistance to imidazolinone herbicides (Clearfield/Euro-Lightning technology) was the deciding factor for us. It allows for complete weed control, including broomrape, in a single spray pass. Based on our work with the PS 652, the crop handles the treatment well, showing no growth stunting and recovering rapidly. This is crucial for maintaining yield potential during critical vegetative phases.

What to expect at planting

• Uniform emergence: The hybrid shows good early-growth vigor, allowing for efficient moisture utilization in early spring.
• Harvest reliability: The stem is strong and resistant to lodging, and the head does not retain excess moisture during ripening, which simplifies threshing.
• Professional breeding: Developed by Ooo Aktiv Agro (Grigoryan V.V., Sharygina M.L., Nabokov N.K.), the hybrid is adapted to specific regional climatic realities, minimizing the risk of heat stress.

If you are looking for a hybrid that is forgiving of minor agronomic mistakes and guarantees a predictable yield, the PS 652 fits perfectly. It is a tool designed for the farmer who values economic efficiency per hectare without the need for 24/7 crop monitoring.
