Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the flint-dent type and is characterized by a high productivity potential, reaching 16–17 tonnes of grain or 30–40 tonnes of silage per hectare. The plant possesses good resistance to root and stalk lodging, which contributes to yield stability.

A feature of the hybrid is the stay-green effect, which allows for the long-term preservation of green mass, thereby increasing forage quality. The maize is adapted to modern farming technologies, including minimum tillage, and is recommended for sowing at soil temperatures from 8 to 12 °С.
