Description
Czech Breeding for High Performance
The «Cesil 285» maize hybrid from the Czech company Oseva Eximpo Praha S.R.O. is a versatile solution for farmers focused on balanced crop production. This simple hybrid with dent grain type demonstrates high adaptability, making it suitable for both high-quality grain production and nutritious silage harvesting.
Agronomic Advantages
The key feature of this hybrid is the successful combination of early maturity and resistance to pathogens. In modern farming, where the risk of fungal disease is increasing, «Cesil 285» shows a strong natural immunity to common smut (Ustilago maydis). This significantly reduces the need for frequent fungicide applications and minimizes the risk of harvest quality degradation.
Seeding Recommendations
The hybrid's flexibility allows it to perform well in various climatic zones and management systems. The recommended plant density ranges from 60,000 to 85,000 plants per hectare, allowing agronomists to adjust sowing rates based on soil moisture availability and fertility:
- 60,000–65,000 plants/ha — for regions with limited moisture, preventing inter-plant competition for resources.
- 75,000–80,000 plants/ha — intensive farming approach for maximum grain yield.
- 80,000–85,000 plants/ha — high-density planting in well-watered regions for maximized silage biomass production.
«Cesil 285» is the preferred choice for those seeking the reliability of Czech breeding and predictable results at the end of the season.
