Duboxx

French selection for professional yields

When it comes to high-quality grain and commercial value, R2N's "Dubox" is the reliable choice I count on season after season. As an agronomist, I value this three-way hybrid primarily for its field robustness and predictable maturity. It consistently hits the 110–120 day window, regardless of weather fluctuations.

Agronomic potential and resistance

The most crucial aspect of working with this hybrid is its health. In high-humidity conditions where rot risks escalate, "Dubox" proves to be a real survivor. It doesn't lodge, and it resists stem smut, saving me from extra fungicide expenses during the growing season. I should also highlight its immunity to common smut (Ustilago maydis): I haven't encountered any signs of infection on this hybrid throughout my years of using it.

Harvesting and application

The grain of "Dubox" is dense, features a beautiful yellow-orange color, and is of an intermediate type. What’s particularly attractive is its dual-purpose nature: you can target commercial grain markets or the popcorn production sector, providing excellent sales flexibility. During threshing, there are no issues; the hybrid demonstrates excellent moisture dry-down, allowing for timely harvests. Harvesting losses are minimal as the stalk is sturdy and highly resistant to lodging.
