Colo MS 280

Yield Stability and Predictable Performance

When we sow Colo MS 280 from NVFG «Kompaniya Mais», we expect stability above all else. For our farm, this is a versatile hybrid. The simple hybrid type provides the uniformity that is crucial during harvest—no surprises with stalk height or maturity timing. The dent-type grain threshes easily, which translates into higher combine speeds and reduced wear on the threshing mechanism.

Field Performance: Health and Productivity

For an agronomist, the absence of smut is paramount. Colo MS 280 demonstrates excellent resistance to common corn smut. In unpredictable weather conditions, this genetic resistance is our best bet for preserving yield potential. The hybrid adapts well to seeding densities ranging from 35,000 to 75,000 plants per hectare, allowing us to adjust our sowing strategy based on the moisture levels of specific fields.

Operational Economics

Colo MS 280 is a 'two-in-one' choice: we get both high-quality grain and excellent silage mass. This eliminates the need to divide fields for different purposes and simplifies machinery logistics during harvest. The hybrid is low-maintenance, and its predictable development pattern makes it easy to schedule fertilizer and crop protection applications precisely.
