Vasiliv 273 SV

Stable yields in a changing climate

Ukrainian plant breeding is currently demonstrating high adaptability, and the "Vasyliv 273 SV" hybrid from the "Rasava" company is a vivid example of this. This mid-early corn hybrid, developed by domestic breeders, is focused on achieving stable performance in both grain and silage mass. In today's agronomic reality, where minimizing the risks of crop loss due to diseases and pests is critical, choosing a hybrid with strong genetic immunity has become a priority for agronomists.

Biological potential and characteristics

"Vasyliv 273 SV" belongs to the flint-dent grain type, providing a balance between fast moisture release and high grain test weight at harvest. The FAO 273 rating makes it a versatile solution for most regions of Ukraine, allowing for efficient use of the growing season. Key characteristics of the hybrid:

• Purpose: dual-use — grain and silage.
• Grain type: flint-dent.
• Resistance: genetic protection against a complex of diseases, including common smut, head smut, fusarium, and root rot.
• Tolerance: increased resistance to European corn borer damage.

The breeders at "Rasava" paid special attention to the phytosanitary condition of the crops. Under field conditions, the hybrid demonstrates an excellent ability to withstand common pathogens, which allows for a reduction in the fungicidal load on the crops. A strong root system and a sturdy stalk minimize the risk of lodging, which is a critical factor for mechanized harvesting within tight timeframes.

Why farmers choose "Vasyliv 273 SV"

Choosing this hybrid is justified for farms looking for a predictable result without unjustified spending on imported seeds. "Vasyliv 273 SV" responds well to intensive cultivation technologies but maintains productivity even on extensive backgrounds, making it a flexible tool for risk management. The stable yield potential, combined with high resistance to pests and diseases, allows this hybrid to be considered a reliable foundation for securing livestock feed or producing commercial grain.
