KEY STRENGTHS
National line with yield and agronomics! New SmartStax® PRO hybrid with strong roots and stalks. Quick out of the ground.

WEAKNESSES
Good but not great defense. Foliar fungicide will be needed in continuous corn.

POSITIONING
Broad placement product that moves east-west and north-south very well. Prefers to be on the average to better ground with good fertility. SmartStax® Pro is a step up on rootworm control, and this will fit well on continuous corn acres. Foliar fungicide use will be beneficial in moderate-to-higher disease pressure areas.

AGRONOMIC & DISEASE RATINGS

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

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 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

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.

Devon, Southeast Nebraska

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.
