- Lodging 8 — high to very high resistance
- Drought tolerance 7 — high, maker's score
- Response to growth regulators — good, maker's data
- Yield 7 — high, maker's score
Overview
About this product
A mid-early winter rapeseed hybrid with moderate autumn development, suited to optimal and late sowing dates, with medium regrowth in spring and late flowering. The maker notes increased tolerance of verticillium, a good response to growth regulators, productivity under insufficient nutrition and pod shatter resistance even when harvest is delayed.
By the maker's score, yield is high (7), oil content 5, pod shatter resistance 9, lodging resistance 8, drought tolerance 7, phoma resistance 7 and clomazone tolerance 6. On farms in 2026 the hybrid gave 4.1–6.1 t/ha.
