KEY STRENGTHS
Top-end yield hog! Handles the heat well. Works best on good to great soils. Tons of ear flex for girth, kernel depth, and test weight. Big silage producer, as well.
WEAKNESSES
Eastern DroughtGard product that does need some moisture to win.
POSITIONING
Use this hybrid on your good ground and push it for big time yields. Responds very well to banded fertilizer and beneficial microbes to help improve nutrient uptake. Prefers to be under irrigation or receive regular rains. It will flower a little early for its maturity, which is great for spreading risk among your hybrids and potentially lowering drying costs in the fall, too.
