Description
The hybrid demonstrates high resistance to major corn diseases such as Helminthosporium, Fusarium, and smut, as well as good resistance to lodging. The grain has a cream-colored, toothed structure, with approximately 29 kernels per row, and a 1000-kernel weight of about 360 grams. EC Sigma is suitable for cultivation in various climatic zones, including Polissia, forest-steppe, and steppe.
Recommended planting density depends on soil moisture levels: for zones with insufficient moisture, optimal density is 60-70 thousand plants per hectare, while for zones with high moisture levels — 70-80 thousand plants per hectare. The hybrid is versatile and can be grown for both grain and silage, making it an attractive choice for farmers aiming for high yield and product quality.
