Herbicides: No known herbicide sensitivity.
Fertilizers: 140 kilograms / hectare of nitrogen – this is a variety with very good N collection, so it is necessary to moderate fertilize with N, and later diet to avoid (dosages over 80 kilograms to divide). 100 kilograms / hectare of water soluble phosphorus, in planting. 200-250 kilograms / hectare of potassium – due to high yields, carefully cautiously fertilize, but less doses are included. Additional fertilization with magnesium ensures yield and quality (60 kilograms / hectare)
