KEY STRENGTHS
Flex this hybrid for best performance! Tons of ear flex allows you to plant at lower to moderate populations and still see top-end yields! Very attractive plant with good staygreen and intactness until harvest. Tremendous silage production potential for quality and quantity. Very good tolerance to Goss’s wilt.

WEAKNESSES
Flowers a little late, which may be a blessing depending on the year.

POSITIONING
Broad-acre placement for all but the western stress ground. Very attractive all season long. Full flex ears with deep kernels and excellent length. Top silage production, as well. Place this hybrid on the low, medium, or higher production acre with confidence. Responds well to foliar fungicide applications, as well as PGR products like Amass in the late vegetative stages.

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

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

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 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

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!
