RGT PLANOXX

French breeding for reliable grain production

The «RAGT Planoxx» hybrid from the French producer RAGT is designed for farmers aiming at intensive grain production. Belonging to the early-maturing segment with an FAO of 240, this hybrid completes its vegetation cycle in 90–100 days. Its rapid maturation makes it an ideal choice for regions with shorter growing seasons or where early field clearance is required for double-cropping systems.

Biological potential and plant health

A core strength of «RAGT Planoxx» is its genetic resistance to common corn pathogens that typically limit yield potential. RAGT breeders have prioritized a robust immune system against common smut. Furthermore, the hybrid shows excellent tolerance to stalk and ear pathogens, including Fusarium and various rots. This resilience minimizes harvest losses even under challenging weather conditions during the mid-to-late season.

Agronomic characteristics

• Hybrid type: Simple, ensuring uniform crop development and predictable performance.
• Grain type: Dent, known for its high test weight and superior dry-down rate at the end of the season.
• Usage: Grain production, optimized for efficient harvesting and processing.

Due to its high plasticity, «RAGT Planoxx» successfully adapts to various soil types while maintaining consistent yields. It integrates seamlessly into standard cultivation practices, simplifying operational logistics on the farm. By utilizing RAGT’s advanced genetic lines, producers gain confidence in their investment, significantly reducing the risks associated with lodging or disease-induced yield penalties.
