A high-tech sweet corn hybrid with dent-type kernels, designed for industrial canning and flash-freezing.
Description
Technical Profile: Syngenta НП 1940 Х НП 1927
This product from the Swiss breeding powerhouse Syngenta is a specialized sweet corn hybrid engineered specifically for the deep processing industry. Unlike standard grain hybrids, the focus here is strictly on organoleptic properties and processing efficiency.
Grain Morphology: The Key to Industrial Quality
The defining characteristic of this hybrid is its yellow, dent-type grain. This structure provides an optimal balance between sugar content and starch, which is essential for maintaining integrity during high-speed industrial processing. The high density of the outer grain layer minimizes mechanical damage during shelling and processing, while the specific chemical composition ensures the preservation of visual and flavor characteristics after autoclaving or flash freezing.
Industrial Application
The hybrid is optimized for three core market segments:
- Canning: The uniformity of grain size allows for precise adjustment of cutting equipment, minimizing raw material waste.
- Freezing: Low enzyme activity in the grain post-blanching allows the product to retain its vibrant color and texture during long-term cold storage.
- Boiled Products: Syngenta's genetics ensure a high yield of grade-A kernels that meet strict retail requirements for texture and sweetness.
By choosing this hybrid, producers gain a predictable yield of processed output per hectare, which is vital for the logistical planning of food manufacturing plants. The high technological standard of the grain reduces the defect rate on packaging lines, making this hybrid a robust choice for agribusinesses focused on the frozen food and canning sectors.

Kernel Type
Dent corn (Zea mays indentata) — Large, elongated, flat kernels. The endosperm is horny on the sides of the kernel, mealy in the center and at the top. A depression forms at the top of the kernel upon ripening. Dent corn is the most widely cultivated group among others. Plants ty... |

Dual-purpose hybrids: for silage and grain in all growing regions. These are "stay-green" type hybrids, meaning the plants remain green for a longer period. However, this does not affect the sugar, cellulose, and hemicellulose content, nor the degree of lignification of the plant... |
