Built to Withstand Challenges

In today’s agricultural landscape, resilience is key. INDAM-1642 BGII has been bred to withstand common challenges, ensuring a reliable harvest.

Tolerance to Sucking Pests : This hybrid offers good tolerance to sucking pests, reducing the need for chemical interventions and contributing to a more sustainable farming approach.

Adaptability : Specifically suited for the irrigated regions of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, INDAM-1642 BGII is adaptable to local growing conditions, ensuring consistent performance across different environments.

The Hybrid Advantage

INDAM-1642 BGII is an interspecific hybrid developed from a cross between Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense. This unique combination offers a range of benefits that set it apart from conventional cotton varieties.

Exceptional Yield Potential: With an impressive yield potential of 16-18 quintals (qtls) of kapas per acre, INDAM-1642 BGII thrives in irrigated and assured rainfall areas, making it an ideal choice for regions with deep black soils.

Robust Growth and Rejuvenation : INDAM-1642 BGII is a wild-type hybrid known for its excellent rejuvenation capacity. This characteristic ensures that the plant maintains vigorous growth throughout the season, maximising its yield potential.

Tall and Semi-Determinate : This cotton hybrid is very tall and semi-determinate, allowing for more bolls per plant and making picking easier. The plant's structure is optimised for better airflow and light penetration, contributing to healthier crop development.

Optimal Spacing : To achieve the best results, we recommend a planting spacing of 4 feet by 3 feet. This spacing ensures that each plant has enough room to grow and access essential nutrients and water.

Superior Fiber Quality

INDAM-1642 BGII is not just about quantity—it’s also about quality. The fiber produced by this hybrid meets the highest standards required by the textile industry.

Extra-Long Staple: The fiber length ranges from 35-37 mm, making it an extra-long-staple cotton. This characteristic is highly valued in the production of premium textiles, where strength and durability are crucial.

Impressive Strength and Fineness : The fiber strength of INDAM-1642 BGII ranges from 30-33.9 g/tex, with a fineness of 3.4. These qualities contribute to the fiber's excellent spinnability, allowing it to be spun into fine yarns ranging from 80 to 100 counts.

White Lint and Uniformity : The cotton produced has a desirable white lint color, with excellent uniformity and maturity, ensuring consistency in quality across the harvest.

High Ginning-Out Turn : With a ginning-out turn of 33-34%, INDAM-1642 BGII ensures that a significant portion of the harvested cotton is usable, maximising profitability for farmers.

We are proud to introduce this hybrid and look forward to supporting farmers in their journey toward greater success with INDAM-1642 BGII. Let’s grow together with the power of innovation!
