Description
Crossfit - winter oilseed rape seeds - high and clubroot-resistant yields
Advantages of Crossfit winter oilseed rape seeds:
- resistance gene to Turnip Yellows Virus (TuYV)
- resistance gene to sclerotinia stem rot (RLM 7)
- very high yield potential
- increased resistance to pod shatter and seed shedding
- high uniformity of maturity
- strong autumn vigour (wide sowing date window)
Crossfit winter oilseed rape is an exceptional variety combining genetic work from various breeding teams. The resistance gene to the main strains of clubroot, outstanding resistance to Turnip Yellows Virus (TuYV), and very high resistance to sclerotinia stem rot (RLM7 gene) are just some of its advantages.
High uniformity of maturity and the gene for increased resistance to pod shatter and seed shedding complement the excellent genetic profile of Crossfit winter oilseed rape seeds.
The Crossfit winter oilseed rape variety features a very high yield potential. In UK registration trials in 2020, it achieved 104% of the standard. In German registration trials, it scored 105% in 2019 and 106% in 2020. In similar trials in France, it averaged 117% of the standard over 2019-2020. Currently, Crossfit is also involved in trials in Poland.
Strong autumn vigour means this variety has a wide sowing date window. It can be sown at the optimal time and performs well even if sowing is delayed.
