Economic and biological characteristics:
FAO 110-120 in hot climates, 141-180 in cold climates. Double interlinear, early-maturing hybrid. In 2008-2010, the average grain yield was 10 200 kg/ha. The maximum yield of 14 300 kg/ha was obtained at the Luninetsky HSU in 2008. The average grain moisture content during harvesting is 28.3%. Grain yield 75.7%, weight of 1000 grains 281 g. Grain contains 11.0% protein, 71.4% starch, 3.7% oil. Collection of protein 7.8 c, starch 58.2 c, oil 2.2 c per hectare. When grown on silage, the average yield of dry matter over the years of testing was 18 700 kg/ha. The maximum yield of 28 000 kg/ha was obtained at the GSHU "Nesvizh GCC" in 2008. The average dry matter content in the green mass is 31.5%. The protein content in the dry matter of the green mass is 8.6%, the protein collection per hectare is 1430 kg. The resistance to drought and lodging is good. Designed for use on grain and silage.
