KEY STRENGTHS
Dominant national hybrid! Excellent yielder. Stellar overall defensive package including southern rust and tar spot. Superior early-season vigor. Very good intactness and staygreen.

WEAKNESSES
Performs best in its maturity zone and north.

POSITIONING
National hybrid with strong yield and defense, making it a consistent performer and a great choice on most acres. Works best as your medium- to full-season hybrid and has the fast drydown to move north out of its maturity zone. This hybrid responds very well to added fertility with girthy ears and good silage potential, too.

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 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.

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

Luke, Iowa

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.
