Description
The maturity group of P7818 is early-maturing, with FAO 240, which allows its use for grain production and alcohol production. The hybrid has resistance to head smut diseases at level 6 out of 9, which contributes to yield preservation and reduced losses. It is ideal for monoculture and minimal soil tillage, but not recommended for late harvest.
Recommended sowing dates include early, optimal, and late, providing flexibility in agronomic practices. Recommended plant density depends on moisture levels: 70-75 thousand plants per hectare with sufficient moisture, and 65-70 thousand with insufficient moisture. Herbicides should be applied strictly according to plant development stages after emergence, which helps maintain seedling health and increases yield.
