Hybrid corn 1040 is a mid-early variety intended for grain production. It is distinguished by good drought tolerance, allowing successful cultivation under limited moisture conditions. The plant has medium height, broad leaves, and slightly curved leaf blades, which promotes effective photosynthesis and crop development.
The hybrid's stalk is characterized by the absence or very weak curvature, and strong anthocyanin root coloration, indicating plant resistance and health. The tassel has sparse ears with a long main axis forming a small angle with lateral branches. Flowering and silk emergence are medium to late, allowing the hybrid to adapt to various climatic conditions.
The ear is of medium length, thick, and slightly conical, with a long stalk and a large number of rows of kernels. The kernels are intermediate type, with the upper part having a yellow-orange coloration. The hybrid exhibits high resistance to major diseases and pests, making it a reliable choice for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality harvest.
