SPECIFICATION:
1. Seed count per bag (i.e. one unit): 80,000 seeds.
2. Recommended sowing rate: 35,000 – 40,000 seeds per hectare | Covers 2.0 – 2.3 hectares
3. Sowing timing: Soil temperature must exceed 12°C before planting.
4. Potential yield per hectare: Depending on growing conditions >3t/ha.
5. Germination rate: Guaranteed minimum >85%.
6. Seed treatment: Seeds are treated with fungicide. Additional treatment against Downey Mildew is recommended.
7. Applied herbicide technology: Stripy is a conventional sunflower hybrid (for clarification, it is neither IMI nor SU). Standard herbicides commonly used on sunflower fields can be applied.
8. Herbicide recommendation It is recommended to cultivate between rows. Regular soil-type herbicides commonly used for sunflower fields may be applied. For example, the herbicide Gardoprim Plus Gold is recommended at a dosage of 4.5 L/ha. It should be applied immediately after planting, within three days of sowing. Furthermore, Helianthex could be applied at a dosage of 45ml/ha, after 4th leaf up to the bud formation. For cereal weeds, we recommend Fusilade Forte 150 EC. This herbicide should be used at a dose of 1.0-1.3 L/ha. Apply during the 3rd to 5th leaf stage of weed growth. Mechanical and/or hand cultivation is highly recommended when weeds are aggressive.
9. Fertilization recommendation: 250 kg/ha of NPK fertilizer pre-sowing. 100 kg/ha of ammonium nitrate (N) during vegetation period. 50-60 kg/ha of Potassium (K₂O) during vegetation period. Application of liquid Boron (B) pre-flowering-stage is highly recommended (attention: be careful and precise in dosing as boron toxicity can occur easily).
10. Fungicide recommendation: for disease protection, for example mildium, we recommend the fungicide PICTOR SK at a dosage of 600
ml/ha. Apply once at the 2-4 leaf pair stage and again before flowering.
11. Preferred soil type: Soil has to be nutritious, firm, and with neutral pH. Seeds and plants need water. Sandy soils require irrigation.
12. Maturity classification: Medium early: 120 days to maturity.
13. GMO status: Seeds are NON-GMO
14. Average plant height: Without irrigation: 170-175 cm, With irrigation: 180 cm.
15. Head position: Strongly curved downward on stem.
16. Lodging resistance: Very good lodging resistance.
17. Seed retention characteristics (after ripening): Strong seed retention; seeds do not fall easily.
18. Broomrape (orobanche) resistance: Relatively tolerant to orobanche (race 6)
19. Disease resistance: Relatively tolerant to downey mildew, rust, phomopsis and alternaria.
20. Tendency for fungal contamination (end-product): Seed is shiny and clean. No fungus is observed on the surface of seed after harvest.
21. Packaging type: Packed in three-layer insulated paper bags branded AtlantaSeed.
22. Palletized transportation: Yes, regular European size pallets.
23. Labelling and certification: Compliant with EU legislation and standards. Bags are tagged with blue OECD/ISTA certified label. ISTA/OECD quality certificate will be provided. Phytosanitary certification available. Certificate of origin available (Turkey).
Frequently asked questions:
1 bag is used for 1.8 – 2 hectares.
One unit branded Atlanta Seed contains 80 000 kernels/seeds/, sorted and treated with fungicide Metalaxil M.
The recommended sowing rate is 40 000-42 000 kernels/seeds per hectare.
Germination is minimum 94 %.
Depends on your soil and climatic conditions, if they are normal between 90 and 96%
The soil should not be sandy and stony. Soil has to be good, hard neutral Ph. Seeds and plants like water. If a farmer has more sandy soil, it will need irrigation.
No, Stripy F1 is neither CL nor Express. It is a conventional sunflower. However, regular soil type herbicides which are used commonly for sunflower fields, can be applied.
Yes, Metalaxil M.
At common climatic conditions between 2.5 and 3.5 t/ha, under irrigation 3.5 and 4.5 t/ha. In case of drought under 2 t/ha.
Yes, they can. Using a desiccant can be done in very rainy summer and autumn, which will prolong the vegetation of plants.
Yes. Seed is NON GMO.
No, seed is shiny and clean. NON fungus are observed on the surface of seed after harvesting.
The purity is 99,8%, moisture is 6-7%.
The seeds are packed in paper three-layer insulated bags branded AtlantaSeed.
All requirements according to the European standards are kept. Blue OECD/ISTA certified label is tagged with all information according requirements.
Yes. We use regular European size pallets.
Yes. The origin of seed production is Turkey.
Yes, ISTA/OECD Quality certificate is a must and
will be provided.
In general, no distance is required from other sunflowers. But if it is possible to keep distance from other sunflowers, 100 meters is OK.
There will be two fractions: 1st – 160 g/1000 seeds; 2nd – 130 g/1000 seeds.
Around 70-80% kernel.
At non-irrigation conditions: 170-175 cm, at irrigation: 180 cm.
Its downward.
Our recommendation is: 40 000-42 000 seeds/ha, which is approximately 70 cm between rows and 32-35 cm between plants.
It is low tolerant to Orobanche. Relatively tolerant to other diseases.
We suggest NOT to use Stomp Extra because of potential damages. Gardoprim is a good option for soil application. Pictor as a Fungicide is also a good option.
Not really. It has a strong keep on.
