A reliable mid-maturing hybrid featuring excellent grain dry-down and strong resistance to fungal diseases.
Description
Yield stability for moderate climate zones
The «Malvina S» hybrid is a result of extensive selection work by the All-Russian Research Institute of Corn. Designed under the leadership of Yuri Sotchenko, this hybrid is built to handle the challenges of unpredictable weather, providing consistent results for both grain production and silage harvesting.
Core technical advantages
The primary advantage of «Malvina S» lies in its biological plasticity combined with a dent (tooth) grain structure. This specific kernel type ensures superior moisture dry-down rates, which is crucial for reducing post-harvest drying costs. Furthermore, the hybrid shows high tolerance to common smut, a key factor in protecting yield potential during the grain filling stage.
Optimal planting strategies
The hybrid's versatility allows farmers to adjust seeding rates based on site-specific water availability:
- Under irrigation and intensive management: 70,000–75,000 plants/ha.
- In standard moisture conditions: 60,000–70,000 plants/ha.
- In moisture-restricted areas: 45,000–55,000 plants/ha.
«Malvina S» is an ideal choice for growers seeking a reliable mid-maturing hybrid. It does not demand exotic agronomic practices, performing consistently well under standard cultivation protocols while providing a stable, high-quality end product.
