Overview

• A rugged hybrid with impressive yield potential, especially on poorly-drained soils
• Strong disease package through late harvest
• A long full flex ear that performs well across populations

Also Available as

Placement/Management

Long full flex ear excels over a wide range of populations. Maintains yield performance across variable soils, including flat black to rolling timber soils. Excellent choice on fields with history of Goss’ wilt. Exceptional health makes it a good late harvest option.
