KEY STRENGTHS
High yields! Great overall performance with yield, defensive characteristics, and solid roots and stalks. Good staygreen and intactness into the fall. Very strong on Goss’s wilt and stalk anthracnose. Drought and stress tolerance is strong enough for placement on dryland or irrigated ground.

WEAKNESSES
Tar spot tolerance is below average and will require a foliar fungicide for protection.

POSITIONING
High-yielding product with a strong stalk and roots. Can fit on dryland or irrigated fields and has enough ear flex to still hit your yield goal with lower populations. This hybrid responds well to fertility, especially phosphorus, so feed it well to reach your yield goals. Foliar fungicide use should pay well with this variety, as it needs a little help on tar spot (as do most hybrids) and the gray leaf spot tolerance is merely average. We’ve seen nice gains with the addition of naturals to accentuate the root system and early growth. Use Maxx NS or Alpha Complete at planting time.

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

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 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

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.
