KEY STRENGTHS
Moderate-statured plant with excellent yield potential! Great agronomics with strong roots and stalks. Nice fall appearance and staygreen. Handles Goss’s and tar spot well. Good drought tolerance allows a fit even on the tougher acres.

WEAKNESSES
Below-average tolerance to southern rust.

POSITIONING
This is a “place-it-everywhere” hybrid that has great agronomics and toughness. Keep this one in its normal maturity zone or bring it further north as it has good drydown. It can handle the continuous corn acre as it has good tolerance to Goss’s, tar spot, and stalk anthracnose. Test weight is average with this hybrid but can be enhanced by higher soil levels of potassium and zinc, as well as late-season sulfur and boron availability.

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!

Luke, Iowa

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.

Nathan, Watertown, South Dakota

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

Devon, Southeast Nebraska

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

Mark, Southeast South Dakota

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.
