FGBNU VNIIMK invites you to the annual All-Russian seminar “Field Day - hybrids and varieties of sunflower, varieties of soybean” with a demonstration of its latest breeding achievements. More than century-old history of the Institute allows us not only to keep pace with the time, but to develop new quality varieties and hybrids that are resistant to the main complex of pathogens and that show a consistently high yield every year.
