Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the S 240/K 240 maturity group and is intended for cultivation for grain, silage, or as an energy crop. Plants possess the "Stay-Green" property, ensuring long-lasting green leaf color, and are characterized by a high grain drying rate.

The variety is characterized by high resistance to lodging, stalk rot, and Helminthosporium leaf blight. The produce has high indicators of fiber and starch digestibility, which makes the hybrid suitable for use in livestock farming.

The recommended sowing density is from 8.5 to 9.5 plants per square meter for silage and from 8.0 to 9.0 plants per square meter for grain, with a reduction of the seeding rate to 6.0–7.5 plants per square meter on arid sandy soils.
