Variety traits
Brassica napus var. napus
The rapeseed maturity group is determined by the length of the growing season from emergence to full seed maturity, measured in days. For spring rapeseed, this indicator ranges from 90 to 130 days, which allows classifying varieties from ultra-early to late-maturing.
In the reference 739 varieties crop Rapeseed, where this is mentioned in the description.
The rapeseed maturity group is a defining characteristic for selecting hybrids suited to specific climatic conditions, helping to minimize the risks of crops being exposed to early autumn frosts. Physiologically, full maturity is characterized by the browning of pods and seed moisture reaching levels between 10–13%.
Utilizing varieties with different maturity groups on a farm is necessary to optimize the harvesting campaign. Staggering the maturation dates of crops allows for reduced peak loads on agricultural machinery and minimizes yield losses associated with over-ripening and uneven pod maturation.
