High-Yielding Hybrid Sunflower KBSH-78: Recommended for Zone 5 of Karnataka

06 April 2025, New Delhi: The KBSH-78 sunflower hybrid, released in 2020, is a high-yielding variety that matures in 82-85 days and offers a productivity of 17-23 q/ha (irrigated) and 10-12 q/ha (rainfed). This hybrid is specifically recommended for Zone 5 of Karnataka, where it has shown excellent adaptability and performance.

Farmers in Zone 5 of Karnataka can benefit from KBSH-78’s ability to thrive in both irrigated and rainfed conditions.

With its high yield potential and adaptability, KBSH-78 is a game-changer for sunflower cultivation in the region.
