KWS KATHRINO

German Genetics for Stable Grain Yields

The «KWS Katrino» maize hybrid from the German breeding giant KWS is the result of years of research focused on maximizing grain production efficiency. As a simple hybrid with dent-type grain, it occupies a solid position in the company's portfolio, offering farmers predictability and high yield potential under intensive cultivation conditions.

Phytosanitary Resistance as a Priority

One of the key features of «KWS Katrino» is its robust biological defense system. In today's climate, which encourages the spread of pathogens, disease resistance is a critical factor for profitability. This hybrid demonstrates high tolerance to the following threats:

• Helminthosporium leaf blight — minimizes the risk of premature leaf desiccation.
• Fusarium — ensures grain quality is preserved even under unfavorable weather conditions during ripening.
• Stalk smut — provides reliable protection for the plant’s generative organs.
• Common smut — high genetic resistance preserves ear integrity and overall market appearance of the crop.

Agronomic Profile

Developed by KWS experts, this hybrid is designed exclusively for grain production. The dent-type grain shape ensures excellent moisture release, allowing farmers to optimize harvesting schedules and reduce energy costs associated with post-harvest drying. The plant's structure and physiological traits make «KWS Katrino» a reliable tool for operations where the priority is obtaining high-quality, clean grain with high test weight.

Choosing this hybrid means investing in the reliability of the European breeding school, which has proven its effectiveness for decades across fields with varying levels of intensity. «KWS Katrino» harmoniously combines resistance to environmental stressors with the ability to unlock maximum productivity potential when best cultivation practices are followed.
