Helianthus annuus L.
An important morphometric indicator that determines productivity and harvesting efficiency, measured as the distance from the soil surface to the point of capitulum attachment.
In the reference 1 147 varieties crop Sunflower, where this is mentioned in the description.
According to state variety testing protocols, measurements are taken before harvest on a representative sample of plants. Height is defined as the distance from the soil surface to the point where the capitulum attaches; less frequently, it is measured to the center of the face of the capitulum.
The range of variability for the species is extremely wide: from 60 cm in dwarf lines to 5–6 meters in ornamental forms, while commercial early-maturing hybrids typically vary between 164–175 cm. This trait is highly dependent on genotype, plant density, water availability, and soil fertility.
Plant height directly affects the efficiency of mechanical harvesting: excessive height or bending of the stem near the capitulum can lead to yield losses. Although tall plants often form a higher potential yield, they require significant resources and may be less stable under adverse conditions.
