KHM 1

Effective forage production requires a stable raw material base, and the KHM 1 hybrid from Ooo Agrus meets this demand with a high margin of safety. This is a specialized solution for farmers focused on obtaining quality forage mass with minimal risks of yield loss due to phytopathogens.

Field Crop Protection

The main advantage of KHM 1 lies in its comprehensive genetic resistance. In conditions of high humidity and crop rotation that trigger fungal diseases, the hybrid demonstrates high resistance to:

• Helminthosporiosis;
• Fusarium;
• Onion stem smut;
• Common corn smut.

Such immunity allows for a reduction in fungicide treatment costs, significantly lowering the production cost per ton of harvested feed.

Practical Farm Application

The originator, Agrus, positions KHM 1 strictly as a solution for forage purposes. Optimal utilization of the hybrid includes:

• Silage harvesting: thanks to balanced vegetative mass accumulation and high leafiness, the crop ensures a good yield of dry matter.
• Crop rotation: resistance to specific pathogens allows for the introduction of this hybrid into fields with an increased infectious background without the risk of total yield loss.

By choosing KHM 1, an agricultural enterprise obtains not just seed material, but a tool for controlling the quality of harvested feed. Unlike sweet corn varieties, this hybrid is tailored for maximum energy output per hectare in the form of green mass, making it a preferred choice for livestock complexes where stability of the feed base is critical throughout the season.
