Description
The hybrid exhibits high yield potential — up to 140 centners per hectare of grain and up to 650 centners per hectare of green mass. Recommended planting density at harvest is 70,000–80,000 plants per hectare under favorable conditions and 60,000–70,000 under adverse conditions. Plant height ranges from 250 to 290 cm, and ear attachment height is 100–110 cm. Ears contain 12–14 rows of kernels, with 35–40 kernels per row.
KWS CURASAO hybrid demonstrates good disease resistance and is suitable for early planting, expanding its cultivation potential across various climatic zones. Due to its characteristics and high yield potential, this hybrid is an optimal choice for farmers aiming to achieve high-quality and stable yields of both grain and silage.
