R 4 NA 1 MK

French breeding for reliable results

The sunflower hybrid R 4 NA 1 MK from Soltis is designed for growers who prioritize consistency. Developed in collaboration with Rustica Semences and Semlim, this simple hybrid incorporates European breeding standards focused on high adaptability in unpredictable climatic conditions.

Key advantages

• Early maturity: A vegetation period of 100-110 days allows the hybrid to escape early autumn frosts and clear fields on time for winter crop preparation.
• Oil content: With an oil content of 45-50%, this hybrid is highly attractive to processing plants, ensuring a high yield per hectare.
• Genetic stability: The simple hybrid structure ensures field uniformity, which is critical for even ripening and simplified harvesting.

Is this the right choice for you?

R 4 NA 1 MK is an optimal tool for farms practicing intensive cultivation where cycle speed is essential. It is not an "extreme performance" champion, but it shows excellent stability across various soil types. A potential downside is the need for precise planting timing; early sowing into cold soil may result in a slower start, which is a common trait among many European varieties.

If your goal is to secure a predictable harvest with high-quality oil content without paying for marketing hype, this hybrid will justify your investment.
