The objective of this work was to evaluate the NPK influence on yield and oil, proteins and phytochemical contents in sunflower grain and to explore the potential of mathematical model of marginal contributions of fertilization effects. The field experiment was conducted in 33 incomplete factorial model, in two randomized blocks, with 15 parcels for block. The treatments were zero, 30 and 60 kg ha-1 of N, P and K. The achene yield increased with fertilizer doses until 55 kg of N ha-1, 41 kg ha-1of K2O and 46 kg ha-1of P2O5. The achene oil content answered positively to increased K2O and P2O5. Proteins content decreases as K2O rate increases. No influence of the fertilization was observed in concentrations of chlorogenic acid, total sterols and total phosphorus on achene.
