Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the mid-maturing group with an FAO 340 maturity rating and has a dent-type grain. Plant height is 235–250 cm. The ear forms 14–18 rows of kernels, with 39–42 kernels per row, and the thousand kernel weight ranges from 260 to 310 g. The starch content in the grain exceeds 72%.

The plant possesses good early vigor and a well-developed root system. The hybrid is characterized by high drought tolerance, tolerance to Fusarium, smut, and Helminthosporium, as well as high lodging resistance. The variety is capable of withstanding low temperatures and is distinguished by fast moisture release during maturation, which reduces grain drying costs.
