KEY STRENGTHS

High yield potential with great roots. Early flower leads to fast drydown. Handles variable soils and responds very well to intensive management.

WEAKNESSES

Weak on Goss’s Wilt. Do not spray dicamba late. Keep planting populations high to push for yield.

POSITIONING

Very strong performer for its maturity. Likes higher populations for the area and good fertility to really shine. Excellent late-season plant health leads to fast drydown and top yields.

Hefty 2801 is a great looking hybrid. I really like how fast it comes out of the ground.

Owen, Minnesota

This is my first time planting Hefty corn. 2801 looks like it has some great roots on it!

Mertz, North Dakota

We tried some Hefty 2801 this year and I was extremely pleased with the emergence and vigor. It stood well all summer and the yield was excellent.

Robert, Pembina County, North Dakota

The emergence and early season vigor of my H2801 was heads and tails above the rest of the other corn that I planted.
