DMC Lord

Stable Yields in Challenging Conditions

The DMS Lord maize hybrid from the scientific and production farming enterprise "Kompaniia Mais" is a product of domestic selection, designed for those seeking a balance between high productivity and biological resilience. The originators, led by Serhii Shevchenko and Ivan Halechko, prioritized reliability, making this hybrid a sought-after tool for intensive farming practices.

Agronomic Profile and Biological Traits

DMS Lord belongs to the mid-early hybrid category. With a maturation period of 90–100 days (FAO 90–1240), it fits perfectly into the crop rotations of the Forest-Steppe and Polissia regions. As a simple hybrid, it ensures uniform crop development, which is critical for efficient harvesting, while its flint-dent grain type allows for versatile use—both for high-quality commercial grain and nutritious silage production.

Protection and Performance

A key feature of DMS Lord is its resistance to pathogens. Under conditions of high humidity and environmental stress, the hybrid demonstrates excellent immunity against:

• Loose smut;
• Common smut;
• Onion stem smut;
• European corn borer damage.

These traits help reduce pesticide application requirements while preserving the genetic potential for high yields. The recommended plant density ranges from 70–75 to 80–85 thousand plants per hectare, depending on local moisture availability. An optimized sowing rate allows the hybrid to reach its full potential, ensuring a high return per hectare.

Choosing DMS Lord is a rational decision for any agronomist who relies on proven Ukrainian genetic breeding capable of stable performance in changing climatic realities.
