Armada

Fully loaded hybrid

  • Type: Restored Hybrid
  • Status: Recommended - UK
  • Resistance Traits: TuYV (Turnip Yellows Virus), Pod Shatter & RLM7 (Phoma Resistance)

The full agronomic package with seventh generation genetics.

LG Armada has strong autumn vigour, is robust, with good adaptability to all regions of the UK.

LG Armada is the first of our seventh generation of hybrids, bringing new maintainer and restorer lines to our OSR portfolio. This effectively means we are bringing varieties to market offering a stacked portfolio of much improved stem health attributes, alongside the standard pod shatter, TuYV and RLM7 resistance traits. We know stem health is key to driving consistent oilseed rape yields across farms and with these seventh generation hybrids, we are seeing bigger stems and better rooting which also results in higher oil content.

Strengths

  • Highest Yielding variety on the RL

  • Robust Disease Resistance Package

  • Brand new 7th generation genetics from LG
