WEAKNESSES
Don’t overcrowd this hybrid. Roots are only average.

POSITIONING

Wonderful hybrid with top-end grain and silage production capabilities. With a full-flex ear, you have the ability to save money on seed costs by planting this at a lower population. Do all you can to enhance root growth with banded fertility, Xyway fungicide, naturals like Micro-Cycle or Maxx NS, and corn rootworm insecticide. Use this hybrid on your best ground and treat it well for best results. Foliar fungicide around tasseling is important to improve disease protection against gray leaf spot, tar spot, and more.

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 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

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

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.
