Description
The Cromwell hybrid has a high yield potential, averaging 71.2 centners per hectare of grain in the Central Chernozem region and 23.6 centners per hectare in the Ural region, with grain moisture at harvest around 20-30%. The vegetative period of the hybrid is approximately 107-111 days, making it suitable for cultivation in various climatic zones, including the Volga-Vyatka, Central Chernozem, Ural, and West Siberian regions. High green mass yield (up to 600 centners per hectare) and optimal planting density (80,000-90,000 plants per hectare) make this hybrid versatile for use in grain, silage, compound feed, and feed production.
Cromwell is characterized by plasticity and adaptability to growing conditions, allowing its effective use in various agronomic systems. Early flowering and moderate resistance to pests such as the corn earworm ensure stable yields and product quality. Thanks to the combination of high productivity, disease resistance, and adaptability, the Cromwell hybrid is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to obtain high-quality and stable corn yields.
