Description
Stable Yields in Grain Production
The French hybrid "Sixtina" from RAGT is a proven solution for farmers focused on obtaining high-quality commercial grain. With an FAO of 340, the hybrid demonstrates an excellent balance between the vegetation period and yield potential, making it an optimal choice for regions with moderate thermal resources.
Agronomic Potential and Application
The flint-dent grain type ensures high grain test weight, which is critical for marketability and long-term storage. Farmers choose "Sixtina" for operations where stability is the priority: the hybrid demonstrates flexibility in growing conditions and efficient dry-down during maturation. The simple hybrid structure ensures uniform crops, which significantly simplifies harvesting equipment settings and minimizes harvest losses.
- Purpose: Dedicated grain production. High grain output during threshing.
- Technological Suitability: Suitable for intensive cultivation technologies with full fertilization programs.
- Stability: Proven genetics help mitigate risks associated with weather fluctuations during the summer season.
It is recommended for sowing in regions where the sum of active temperatures allows for the full realization of the potential of this FAO 340 group hybrid, while avoiding late planting dates in moisture-deficient soils. "Sixtina" is an investment in predictable results at the grain elevator.
