A versatile, high-starch (73%) three-line hybrid optimized for both grain production and premium silage.
Description
High-Performance Hybrid for Intensive Farming
The 'Malton' hybrid from the German breeding house Dieckmann GmbH&Co.KG is a top-tier choice for farmers seeking versatility. Due to its three-line genetic structure, this hybrid offers excellent adaptability, delivering consistent yields whether harvested for grain or silage. Its flint-dent grain type ensures high density and nutrient density, making it a premium asset for livestock feed or commercial feed production.
Agronomic Resilience and Protection
A major advantage of 'Malton' is its robust genetic resistance to common maize pathogens. The hybrid provides a high level of protection against Fusarium, Helminthosporium, and various rots. Its resistance to stalk and boil smut reduces the need for intensive fungicide applications, helping to protect the yield until harvest. This natural strength allows growers to maintain stability across different environmental conditions.
Field Management Guidelines
With a maturity cycle of 90–100 days, 'Malton' is characterized by its early vigor and efficient moisture release. To maximize performance, we recommend a planting density of 65,000 to 80,000 plants per hectare, depending on local soil characteristics and moisture availability.
- Nutritional Value: A starch content of 73% makes this silage an essential component for high-productivity dairy operations.
- Mechanical Efficiency: Excellent standability and resistance to lodging simplify harvest operations and minimize grain losses.
- Proven Quality: Developed by Dieckmann GmbH&Co.KG in collaboration with European originators like Panam France and Boston Seeds, ensuring professional-grade seeds.
Investing in 'Malton' means choosing German precision in seed breeding. It is a reliable solution designed to integrate seamlessly into modern farming operations, providing both stability and profitability.
