KEY STRENGTHS
Exciting new Trecepta® hybrid with great fall appearance and solid stalks and roots! Shorter hybrid with nice tar spot tolerance. Has plenty of ear flex for medium populations.

WEAKNESSES
Sensitive to dicamba, especially if sprayed late or at high rates. Shorter hybrid better suited for good to better ground.

POSITIONING
Trecepta® hybrids are becoming quite popular, and this one has some nice yield and fall appearance. The cross has one parent with some sensitivity to Goss’s, so walk before you run in those situations. There’s plenty of flex in this one, so you don’t have to push populations.

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!

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

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.
