LG31388

Stable Grain Yield for Intensive Farming

French breeding from Limagrain has long established itself as a benchmark for reliability, and the LG31388 model is a prime example. This simple hybrid of dent corn is primarily focused on producing commercial grain. For farmers aiming for high profitability, this hybrid is worth considering when planning the sowing campaign in zones with moderate to sufficient moisture.

Agrotechnological Features and Crop Protection

LG31388 demonstrates excellent genetic immunity, which significantly reduces the need for fungicide applications during the growing season. The hybrid shows high resistance to common smut and confidently withstands fusarium and head smut. This allows for the production of high-quality grain with minimal risk of mycotoxins, which is critical for export or industrial processing.

Recommended Plant Density

The efficiency of the hybrid directly depends on following density guidelines. To unlock its full productivity potential, the following strategy is recommended:

• Under favorable moisture conditions: 70,000–75,000 plants per hectare.
• In drought-prone conditions or with limited moisture availability: 60,000–65,000 plants per hectare.

With a vegetation period of 140 to 160 days, LG31388 requires strict adherence to sowing schedules. It is an excellent choice for farms that value predictability and high yield per hectare, avoiding «experimental» zones that require extremely early or late maturity groups.
