KEY STRENGTHS
Rock solid hybrid! SmartStax® PRO hybrid with top yields, great plant structure, and very good disease protection! Healthy plant with a tremendous stalk. Loves early planting and has strong early vigor and growth. Very good tolerance to Goss’s wilt and handles tar spot very well, too.

WEAKNESSES
Average drought tolerance.

POSITIONING
Just a fantastic overall 110-day SmartStax® PRO hybrid. Excellent rootworm protection along with a great stalk helps this plant shine all season long! This hybrid has some ear flex to it that can be accentuated by pushing fertility and keeping planting populations a little lower. For example, 30,000 can get you 300-bushel corn if conditions allow. Fits the best on your average to good ground but is definitely not a racehorse-type hybrid. Responds very well to products like WeatherKing and Heat Shield to help with stressful weather conditions.

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

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.
