R9874 / P9874

The R9874 corn hybrid is a mid-season simple hybrid with FAO 380, intended for grain production. It features a dent kernel type and belongs to the mid-late maturity group. Recommended growing zones include Polissia, Forest Steppe, and Northern Steppe of Ukraine. To achieve maximum yield, avoid early planting and late harvest, and apply post-emergence herbicides according to crop development stages.

One of the key advantages of the R9874 hybrid is its high resistance to lodging and drought, ensuring stable yields even under adverse conditions. The hybrid exhibits excellent moisture shedding, contributing to timely harvest and reduced losses. High stem strength and optimal ear attachment height further enhance the plant’s resistance to unfavorable factors.

R9874 stands out for its high adaptability and stable yield performance within its maturity group, confirmed by its inclusion in the AQUAmax® lineup. Recommended plant density varies depending on moisture conditions: 50-60 thousand plants per hectare in dry conditions, up to 75-95 thousand plants under sufficient moisture or irrigation. This planting approach optimizes resource use and increases cultivation efficiency.
