Fight

Genetic Architecture and Purpose

The Fait corn hybrid from the German breeding house Farmsaat is a prime example of a simple hybrid featuring a pronounced waxy grain structure. This characteristic hides a critical technological advantage: the starch in this grain consists almost entirely of amylopectin. This fundamentally changes the bioavailability of the product, both in feed production and in the processing industry.

Biological Advantages of the Waxy Type

The primary value of Fait lies in its energy efficiency. Waxy starch is digested by animals much faster and more completely than standard dent corn. For livestock farms choosing Fait for silage, this translates to increased herd productivity without increasing the feed ration. The high digestibility of dry matter minimizes energy loss during digestion.

Technological Flexibility

• Grain Production: Due to its dense structure, the grain is less prone to damage during mechanized harvesting and transport. The waxy type makes it a sought-after raw material for specialized starch syrup production.
• Silage Component: The hybrid forms a robust vegetative mass that retains high moisture and nutritional value until harvest, which is critical for fermenting high-quality silage.

The joint development by Farmsaat, Freiherr Von Moreau Saatzucht, and Strube Gmbh&Co.Kg has resulted in a product that balances German breeding precision with adaptability to intensive cultivation technologies. Choosing Fait is an investment in the energy value of your harvest, ensuring that every hectare works toward maximizing the yield of digestible nutrients.
