Sunflower is one of the key crops in Ukraine's agricultural sector. Over 6 million hectares are allocated for its cultivation every year, and the demand for high-quality seeds is only growing.
For farmers who want a stable yield adapted to the climatic conditions of central and western Ukraine, the NS Sumo 007 sunflower hybrid is a proven solution. It is one of the most successful options among the SUMO group — under the herbicide Granstar (tribenuron-methyl), which demonstrates excellent results in the field.
NS Sumo 007 is a hybrid that has stood the test of time. It has repeatedly proven its effectiveness in farms of various sizes — from small farms to industrial agricultural companies. Thanks to its high plasticity, it thrives both on fertile black soil and on lighter soils. That is why it is often recommended for sowing in the central and western regions of Ukraine.
Advantages of the Sumo 007 sunflower hybrid:
- Reliable resistance to the herbicide Granstar — allows effective control of a wide range of weeds, including problematic dicotyledons.
- High resistance to sunflower broomrape (up to 6 races) — no significant spread of the parasitic plant.
- High yield — recognised as No. 1 among SUMO hybrids in terms of yield in Ukrainian fields.
- Excellent drought resistance — suitable for regions with irregular rainfall and prolonged periods of heat.
- Disease resistance — lower protection costs, reduced risk of crop loss.
- Powerful root system and strong stem — reduced risk of lodging, even with intensive cultivation.
This hybrid adapts perfectly to medium and high-intensity technologies. It does not require excessive care, but responds well to optimal growing conditions — fertilisers, treatments, and high-quality seedbeds. For those looking for stability and reliability, Sumo 007 sunflower is one of the best choices.
It is especially important to note that the technology of growing sunflowers under the herbicide Granstar (the so-called SUMO technology) allows you to get weed-free crops even on problematic fields. This greatly simplifies the work of farmers, especially in the context of climate change, when weeds compete for every drop of moisture.
As a result, NS Sumo 007 is not just a hybrid, it is a tool for achieving high results in difficult conditions. It allows farmers to remain confident in their harvest, even when the weather is not on their side. For central and western Ukraine, it is, without exaggeration, the top player among modern sunflower hybrids using SUMO technology.
