French breeding in practice: operational experience with the «Kodimi» hybrid

Planning a crop rotation requires a balance between grain yield and silage quality. «Kodimi» by Caussade Semences is a reliable choice that adapts well to various field conditions and consistently hits the target maturity window.

Agronomic performance and field reliability

In the field, this three-way hybrid demonstrates excellent early vigor. Uniform emergence makes field operations, from spraying to harvesting, much more straightforward. Being a flint-dent grain type, the hybrid shows superior dry-down capacity, which significantly reduces grain drying costs — a direct boost to your bottom line.

From a phytosanitary perspective, the hybrid handles pressure well:

• Strong resistance to Fusarium, keeping stems healthy even in wet seasons.
• Excellent tolerance against Helminthosporium and stalk smut, ensuring the leaves remain active for grain filling until the final stages.

Operational insights for farmers

With a maturity cycle of 90-100 days, «Kodimi» is a versatile tool for any farm. Whether your goal is high-quality grain or nutritious silage, this hybrid performs predictably. For silage, it produces a bulky biomass rich in nutrients; for grain, it provides a uniform, high-quality product that is gentle on harvest equipment, with minimal kernel damage during threshing.

Working with Caussade Semences genetics, you get a hybrid that doesn't demand constant troubleshooting. It is a solid, professional choice for growers who value stability, consistent plant architecture, and a healthy crop standing until the day the harvester rolls in. If you are looking for a hybrid that combines French precision with practical, high-yield performance, «Kodimi» delivers exactly that.
