Description
Reliable yields with an early-maturing French hybrid
French breeding from Mas Seeds has long been a benchmark for agricultural efficiency, and the LFH 1909 hybrid is a perfect example. This dent corn hybrid is optimized for high-quality grain production, combining vigorous early growth with robust phytosanitary resistance.
Why choose LFH 1909 for your farm?
The primary focus of this hybrid is grain production. Due to its early maturation, it is an ideal choice for producers operating in regions with shorter growing seasons or for those planning early sowing of winter crops immediately after the corn harvest.
- Phytosanitary Shield: High resistance to root and stalk rots, fusarium, and common smut allows for a reduction in pesticide applications. The plants maintain structural integrity until harvest, significantly minimizing lodging losses.
- Pest Resistance: Genetic tolerance to European corn borer damage simplifies crop management, especially in fields with high pest pressure.
Sowing Density Recommendations
Optimizing plant density is key to unlocking the full potential of LFH 1909. Depending on the moisture levels of your specific fields, follow these guidelines:
- For well-irrigated or high-moisture conditions (intensive management): 75,000–80,000 plants per hectare.
- For fields with limited water availability or arid zones: 50,000–55,000 plants per hectare.
Investing in this Mas Seeds hybrid means investing in predictable results. LFH 1909 is forgiving of minor agronomic inconsistencies and ensures strong yields when basic nutritional and crop protection standards are met.
