MADIVO

French genetics for consistent yields

When you choose seeds from Maisadour Semences, you are opting for predictable field performance. The 'Madivo' hybrid is a quintessential example of French breeding, designed for those who value efficiency and operational stability. With a maturity cycle of 140–160 days, it is a robust performer that adapts well to various farm management styles, whether the goal is grain production or high-quality silage.

Field performance and agronomy

The 'Madivo' hybrid carries a FAO rating of 90–1240, placing it in a category that requires a full-season commitment. However, this is precisely where its strength lies. As a simple hybrid with dent-type grain, it offers excellent dry-down characteristics, which is a major advantage when calculating post-harvest costs. Minimizing moisture content at harvest means less time in the dryer and better fuel economy for the farm’s bottom line.

Usage versatility

• Grain Production: The dent grain structure ensures easy harvesting with minimal damage, providing a high-quality product ready for storage or sale.
• Silage Potential: The biomass development is substantial, offering excellent energy density. For livestock operations, this translates to better feed conversion ratios.

From an operator's perspective, working with 'Madivo' is straightforward. It is responsive to standard agronomic practices and shows great resilience throughout the growth stages. The expertise of Mas Seeds and the originators is evident in the uniform stand density and the plant's ability to maximize nutrient uptake. If you are looking for a reliable, high-output hybrid that performs consistently year over year, 'Madivo' is a solid choice for any professional farming operation.
