Description
Corn plants reach a height of 250-260 cm, with ears attached at a height of 75-85 cm. The number of rows per ear varies from 12 to 14, and the number of kernels per row is 33-36. The 1000-kernel weight ranges from 270-300 g, indicating large kernel size and high quality seed material. The hybrid exhibits plasticity and consistently shows high yield performance under various cultivation technologies.
Recommended planting density is 75-85 thousand plants per hectare in well-watered zones and 60-65 thousand per hectare under water deficit. Grain yield potential reaches 16 tons per hectare, confirming the hybrid's high productivity. Seed treatment includes comprehensive protection agents ensuring reliable plant development and protection against diseases and pests.
