Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid forms plants with dark green foliage and a sturdy stalk resistant to lodging. The variety possesses high resistance to Goss's wilt, gray leaf spot, common rust, and northern corn leaf blight.

Kernels are large, dark orange, and of the butterfly type. The expansion ratio is approximately 52 MWVT with an index of 60 kernels per 10 g. The flakes obtained after popping are characterized by high strength, which reduces their breakage during transport and processing.
