New Corn Hybrids for the 2023 Growing Season

In the 2022/23 season, VNIS's corn portfolio was expanded with new hybrids developed for the agro-climatic conditions of Ukraine. The company focuses on breeding hybrids with high, stable yields and good grain moisture retention, which is what the market demands and is economically justified.

Therefore, we offer you an overview of the new hybrids: Paradiz and Mantikora

Paradiz (FAO 270) is a new plastic grain hybrid. The grain is flinty-toothed, has 16 rows in the cob. It is resistant to lodging. It is characterized by high drought tolerance and resistance to diseases such as helminthosporium, fusarium and blister smut. The yield potential is 19 t/ha.

Mantikora (FAO 310) is a new plastic grain hybrid suitable for biogas production. The grain is flinty-toothed, with 16-18 rows of grains and 44 grains per row. It has a high yield potential of 21 t/ha. It is characterized by high drought resistance and lodging resistance. It has a fairly high genetic resistance to major corn diseases.

It reveals its potential best under conditions of sufficient and moderate moisture. The recommended plant density before harvesting for grain in areas of sufficient moisture is 75-80 thousand plants/ha, in the area of moderate moisture - 65-75 thousand plants/ha, and in the area of insufficient moisture - 55-60 thousand plants/ha.
