About product
The silage corn hybrid S3477/EXPG601 belongs to the mid-late maturity group with a FAO rating of 340. This hybrid is characterized by high yield potential and high starch content in the grain, making it especially valuable for silage use. Plants reach a height of 280-285 cm, with ear attachment height of 110-115 cm. The grain is dent-shaped, with 30-35 kernels per row and 14-18 rows, which contrib…

Description
The silage corn hybrid S3477/EXPG601 belongs to the mid-late maturity group with a FAO rating of 340. This hybrid is characterized by high yield potential and high starch content in the grain, making it especially valuable for silage use. Plants reach a height of 280-285 cm, with ear attachment height of 110-115 cm. The grain is dent-shaped, with 30-35 kernels per row and 14-18 rows, which contributes to good yield formation.
The hybrid S3477/EXPG601 is recommended for cultivation in all zones, including the Polissia, forest-steppe, and steppe regions. It adapts well to various soil and climatic conditions, including conventional and minimum tillage practices, as well as no-till technologies. The hybrid demonstrates resistance to seedling diseases, fusarium, and root and stem lodging, ensuring stable yields even under adverse weather conditions.
Seed density varies depending on moisture conditions: 50-60 thousand plants per hectare under unstable moisture conditions, up to 70-75 thousand under adequate moisture. Thanks to its characteristics and resistance, S3477/EXPG601 is a reliable choice for farmers seeking high-quality silage corn yields.
