SUN FLOWER

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of only a handful couple of product species that began in North America (most started in the rich sickle, Asia or South or Focal America). It was most likely a "camp supporter" of a few of the western local American clans who tamed the harvest (perhaps 1000 BC) and after that conveyed it eastbound and southward of North America. The principal Europeans watched sunflower developed in numerous spots from southern Canada to Mexico.

Sunflower was likely first acquainted with Europe through Spain, and spread through Europe as an oddity until the point that it achieved Russia where it was promptly adjusted. Determination for high oil in Russia started in 1860 and was to a great extent in charge of expanding oil content from 28% to right around half. The high-oil lines from Russia were reintroduced into the U.S. after World War II, which revived enthusiasm for the yield. In any case, it was the revelation of the male-sterile and restorer quality framework that made half and halves achievable and expanded business enthusiasm for the product. Creation of sunflowers along these lines climbed significantly in the Incomparable Fields states as advertisers discovered new specialties for the seeds as an oil edit, a birdseed trim, and as a human nibble nourishment. Creation in these locales in the 1980s has declined for the most part in view of low costs, yet in addition because of illness, creepy crawly and flying creature issues. Sunflower land is currently moving westbound into dryer districts; be that as it may, 85% of the North American sunflower seed is still delivered in North and South Dakota and Minnesota.
