Maintenance Recommendations

To maximize the marketable yield, "Alpedro" requires timely irrigation. This type of corn is sensitive to water stress during the flowering and grain-filling phases. With precise fertilization and protection against pests common to the sweet corn group, this hybrid produces uniform cobs that are convenient to harvest both manually and mechanically. Lodging resistance is at a solid level, which simplifies operations for equipment operators during the harvest season.
