KEY STRENGTHS
Powerful yielder for the I-29 corridor and east! Exciting SmartStax® PRO hybrid with some of the best roots you’ll find. Excellent stalk anthracnose protection and a solid overall defense package. Big, leafy plants make good silage with lots of grain.

WEAKNESSES
Average drought tolerance.

POSITIONING
Excellent choice for rootworm protection and yield for the I-29 corridor and east. Place this hybrid in your good to better ground and push it for top yield. Has enough ear flex that you don’t need to over-populate it, and you likely won’t get much yield response over 34,000. Responds well to foliar fungicide use with Nutex EDA around tasseling for tar spot and gray leaf spot help.

AGRONOMIC & DISEASE RATINGS

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

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.

Paul, Southeast South Dakota

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!

Ben, Moses Lake, Washington

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

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!

Mark, Southeast South Dakota

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