Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is mid-early, with a growing period of 76–79 days. The plant reaches a height of 180–190 cm. The ears are 20–23 cm long, 4.8–5.3 cm in diameter, and contain 16–18 rows of pearly-white kernels with good tip fill.

This type of corn belongs to the supersweet (sh2) genetic group, which ensures a high sugar content and a slow conversion of sugar into starch. The hybrid is tolerant to common rust and northern corn leaf blight. Spatial isolation from other types of corn is required during cultivation.
