A preliminary test was conducted on new hybrids during the growing season of 2018, from which new products will be selected.

In a commercial sunflower field, we isolated a patch of plots in which the combinations were planted. The new hybrids were grown under the same conditions as the field surrounding them. In the commercial field, we planted a generic open pollination XXL type.

Produced by the Israeli Ministry of Agriculture, Department of Field Crops.

Three locations in different regions through the state: North – Megiddo, Center – kefar Menachem, south - be'eri.

Each location planted beside a regular production sunflower field.
