Sunflower field day organized by Victoria Logistic

On August 17, Victoria Logistic organized the first Sunflower field day in Banatsko Novo Selo in association with the cooperative Agromilenijum from Banatsko Novo Selo. The event was attended by around 160 agricultural producers who collaborate with Agromilenijum, the cooperative that has begun the purchase of sunflower at their purchase locations.

Seventeen of the best sunflower hybrids in the southern Banat area were showcased at the Sunflower field day. Several experiments have shown different maturity groups of sunflower hybrids of 6 seed houses, the influence of the weather conditions on sunflower hybrids, as well as the aspects of the use of growth stimulants. There was also a presentation of an experiment which involved the use of mineral fertilizers (primary and nitrogen-based) on the basis of the conducted soil analysis and the sunflower production technology recommended by Victoria Logistic.

The Sunflower field day was held as a part of the educational project for agricultural producers regarding the importance of implementing and respecting agro technical measures, from crop rotation, obligatory soil analysis, adequate feeding and timely protection of crops, to the implementation of traceability in agricultural production.
