KOSCO HYBRID MUSTARD SEED PM -32 Mustard Seeds

About KOSCO HYBRID MUSTARD SEED PM-32 Mustard Seeds

• Pusa Mustard 32 is classified as a single-zero quality variety.
• In agricultural terms, this means it contains safe, internationally accepted levels of erucic acid (less than 2%) in its oil.
• This health profile contrasts sharply with traditional Indian mustard varieties, which frequently exceed 40% erucic acid.
• High levels of erucic acid are linked to cardiac fat accumulation, making PM-32 oil far safer for human consumption and bringing it up to global edible oil standards.

Key Features of KOSCO HYBRID MUSTARD SEED PM-32 Mustard Seeds

• Official trials conducted by IARI outline the core physiological performance metrics of PM-32:
• Average Seed Yield: Typically yields 25.0 to 27.1 quintals per hectare (q/ha). Under optimal farm management and high-fertility conditions, its production capacity can max out at 33.5 q/ha.

Crop & Fruit Characteristics

• Oil Content: The seeds produce an average oil content of 38.0% to 38.5%. 
• Maturity Duration: It is a medium-to-late maturing variety, taking between 142 to 145 days to transition from sowing to full harvest readiness. 
• Seed Weight: The variety produces bold, medium-sized seeds with a test weight of 4.61 grams per 1000 seeds. 
• Plant Architecture: PM-32 plants grow relatively tall with a prominent main shoot and high pod (siliquae) density, yielding an average of 17 to 18 grains per pod 

Recommended Season & States

• Agronomic Features & Regional Suitability Sowing Window & Conditions: The variety is explicitly engineered for Rabi season cultivation under timely sown, irrigated conditions.
• Geographical Suitability: According to the official IARI Best Practices documentation, PM-32 is recommended for Zone II of India's agro-climatic map.
• This includes:
• Rajasthan (especially Northern and Western parts)
• Punjab and Haryana
• Delhi and Western Uttar Pradesh
• Plains of Jammu & Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh 
• Abiotic Stress Tolerance: It exhibits notable resilience to environmental stressors, specifically offering tolerance to high temperatures during the seedling stage and low water stress. 
• Disease Resistance: Crop trials indicate that PM-32 has a low susceptibility profile to major devastating diseases like White Rust (s सफेद रतुआ). 
• By-Product Value: Beyond oil, because PM-32 features significantly lower levels of glucosinolates (<30 micromoles) than primitive variants, the remaining seed meal (oil cake) is highly safe and nutritious as poultry and livestock feed. 
   

Seed Rate per Acre

• Typically yields 25.0 to 27.1 quintals per hectare (q/ha). Under optimal farm management and high-fertility conditions, its production capacity can max out at 33.5 q/ha.
