Rotation
Sunflower must be grown in a crop rotation to prevent diseases. The economically significant disease is Sclerotinia, which reduces yields. Additional notes:
- Sunflower moth caterpillars pupate in the webbing on the flower head or descend to the soil.
- Sunflower should be planted on the same plot only after 4-5 years.
Preceding Crops
- Soybeans and oilseed rape are not suitable due to similar diseases.
- Alfalfa and grass with deep roots that dry out deeper soil layers are unsuitable.
Bed Preparation
- Basic autumn and winter plowing to a depth of 25 cm.
- Pre-sowing tillage in spring involves two passes: one with harrows (when the soil is dry) and one before sowing using leveling tools.
Fertilization
Fertilize the soil with manure every 4-5 years, at 30-50 t/ha.
Sowing
- Only declared seeds (hybrids) with germination rates of 80% or higher (typically above 90%) are used.
- Sowing time: When the soil temperature at the sowing layer is 8-10°C.
- Sowing depth: 4-6 cm, with rows spaced 70 cm apart (depending on the hybrid).
Care
- Rare breaking of the soil surface layer.
- Mechanical weed control involves two inter-row cultivations followed by manual hoeing.
- One inter-row cultivation is recommended to break the cover and achieve optimal humidity.
Irrigation
Not necessary, as sunflower is resistant to drought. Excess irrigation can cause diseases.
Harvest
- At technological maturity, leaves fall from the stem.
- Grain water content starts at 14% and ends at 10%.
- For long-term storage, maintain grain humidity at 8%; otherwise, drying or immediate processing is required.
- Combine settings (adapter-thresher) are crucial to minimize seed damage.
