KEY STRENGTHS
Powerhouse! Big plant type with yield and incredible defense. Strong roots and stalks with low risk of greensnap. Tolerance to tar spot, Goss’s, and has excellent stalk anthracnose protection. All that, and it has enough ear flex to see top yields with moderate planting populations to save you money. Excellent silage product, as well.

WEAKNESSES
Average staygreen.

POSITIONING
This is a national product that moves south and north of its maturity zone and can be used east to west across North America. Fantastic yielder! Great silage choice, as well. Use at moderate populations as there is plenty of ear flex. Do not over-plant this hybrid. 34,000-36,000 is plenty unless your target is 400+ bushels per acre. With good drought tolerance, you can use this hybrid on dryland or irrigated acres. Plant health fungicide application is recommended, along with Nutex EDA.

AGRONOMIC & DISEASE RATINGS

H4064 Agronomic Chart

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 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.

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.

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.

Mike, Othellow, Washington

Out of everything I planted, Hefty has always been the first corn out of the ground over the last three years.
