Sunflower seeds AM Patriot plus, Kharkiv region.

A new hybrid of the selection of "AF NPP AGROMYR" LLC, submitted for State variety testing in 2025.
A new, more improved version of the hybrid AM PATRIOT SU.
This hybrid has undergone three versions of improvement over the past three years:
AM PATRIOT SU - AM Patriot modified - AM Patriot plus
In the network of state sorting stations in 2024, an extremely dry year, in the previous version of AM PATRIOT SU in the Forest Steppe zone, the average yield was 37.5 t/ha.

- Grandstar resistant. Resistant toherbicides, which contain tribenuron - methyl (SU) - EXPRESS (SUMO) technology with a one-time rate! application of 100 grams per 1 ha.
It also perfectly tolerates the Granstar Gold herbicide with a one-time application rate of 50 g/ha, which, in addition to tribenuron-methyl, also contains thifensulfuron-methyl.

The main differences of this, more advanced version of this hybrid, are greater resistance to granstar, which has doubled from a single application of 50 g/ha to 100 g/ha.
The growing season of this hybrid was also extended by 2-3 days.
Increased resistance to fomosis, phomopsis, powdery mildew, and root rot.
The hybrid became genetically more uniform.
Even the extraordinary drought resistance of this hybrid has become even higher.
Biological and approbation characteristics:
Hybrid AM Patriot plus mid-early. Vegetation period - 112-115 days.
The height of the plants is 170-175 cm.

The basket is medium-sized. From the side of the seed mass, it has a convex shape. A peculiarity of the hybrid is a small angle (30-35 degrees) of the inclination of the basket during ripening, which allows water to drain from the cup of the basket. This feature of the hybrid allows it to be less affected by gray and white rot than other hybrids.
Seeds of medium size, black in color, with barely noticeable gray stripes.(//tractor-service.com)
