About product
CMS 3999 — a high-yielding corn hybrid, distinguished by good drought and low-temperature tolerance. This mid-maturing hybrid with FAO 320 is the leader in yield within its maturity group and is intended for grain production. Plants reach a height of 220-250 cm, have a dent-type kernel with starch content exceeding 72%, and a 1000-kernel weight of 300-350 grams. The number of rows on the ear varie…

Description
CMS 3999 — a high-yielding corn hybrid, distinguished by good drought and low-temperature tolerance. This mid-maturing hybrid with FAO 320 is the leader in yield within its maturity group and is intended for grain production. Plants reach a height of 220-250 cm, have a dent-type kernel with starch content exceeding 72%, and a 1000-kernel weight of 300-350 grams. The number of rows on the ear varies from 14 to 18, with 38 to 44 kernels per row.
The hybrid demonstrates high initial growth energy and adapts well to various soil-climatic conditions, making it especially suitable for cultivation in the Polissia and Steppe regions of Ukraine. Recommended planting density depends on moisture conditions: from 60,000-65,000 plants per hectare in dry conditions to 70,000-80,000 plants in well-watered conditions. Sowing can be conducted at soil temperatures of 8 °C or higher.
CMS 3999 exhibits high tolerance to common corn diseases, including helminthosporiosis, rust, and fusarium, as well as lodging resistance. These characteristics ensure stable yields and reduce risks of losses under adverse weather conditions and diseases. This hybrid is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve high-quality corn yields.

Corn hybrids are classified by maturity groups and by the FAO number. All corn hybrids are distributed according to the FAO scale. Under Central European conditions, a difference of 10 FAO units between hybrids results in a 1-2 day difference in their maturity. The higher the FAO... |

Dent corn (Zea mays indentata) — Large, elongated, flat kernels. The endosperm is horny on the sides of the kernel, mealy in the center and at the top. A depression forms at the top of the kernel upon ripening. Dent corn is the most widely cultivated group among others. Plants ty... |
