Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a two-line hybrid characterized by a giant yet compact habit. The plants have an increased stem diameter and shortened internodes. The variety is photoperiod-sensitive and does not form generative organs under certain climatic conditions.

The plant is distinguished by high green and dry mass productivity. Due to the presence of the BMR gene, the lignin content in the structure is reduced, which contributes to better digestibility of the feed. The variety is intended for silage harvesting and is recommended for cultivation in climatic zones suitable for growing corn.
