Variety description

10 August 2026

The Magister maize hybrid is intended for silage use. In agronomic research, this variety was often used as a control sample due to its ability for intensive early growth at low temperatures.

The plant is characterized by medium length and a medium degree of leaf maturation. Currently, the hybrid has been removed from the active lists of permitted varieties in many countries due to its status as a legacy breeding product.
