Hefty Brand H3992 Corn

GDUs to Mid-Pollination: 1100
GDUs to Black Layer: 2210
Pollination for Maturity: Medium
Ear Type: Flex
Cob Color: Red

KEY STRENGTHS
Top-end yields! Full flex hybrid with the ability to plant at lower populations and still get big yields. Loves running west and north. Handles stress well. Strong late-season stalks. Solid disease tolerance to Goss’s, northern corn leaf blight, and tar spot.

WEAKNESSES
Gray leaf spot tolerance is below-average.

POSITIONING
Excellent choice for the Dakotas and Minnesota that fits on most every acre including the tougher fields. Keep this one either in its maturity zone or north for best performance. In lower yield environments, you will benefit in stress tolerance and performance by lowering planting populations and letting the hybrid flex. Responds well to higher P & K levels.

AGRONOMIC & DISEASE RATINGS

The higher the number, the better the performance or rating.

I first tried Hefty because of the price point. Then I put four hybrids in my competition plot with four other brands of corn. Hefty took 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in my plot. That’s when I knew I was planting the real deal!

I put my Hefty corn up to my favorite Pioneer and Dekalb, and wow does it perform! I’ll keep planting Hefty!

We have had a really good run with Hefty Corn hybrids on our farm over the last several years. In fact, they have been our top-yielding hybrids for a number of years now.

I know that when I give my business to Hefty Seed Company, I can count on great yields from their products and outstanding service from their knowledgeable agronomists.

Out of everything I planted, Hefty has always been the first corn out of the ground over the last three years.

Devon, Southeast Nebraska

I plant corn for Habitat for Hunting. My ground is really tough due to flooding it each year. I switched to Hefty Corn because of how well it handles tough, dry soil.

Mike, Othellow, Washington

The emergence and yields I have gotten from my Hefty Brand Seed have been outstanding!
