156 LA 337

French Breeding Excellence for Your Field

When selecting maize for the food industry or freezing, the requirements for grain quality are exceptionally high. The Lidea 156 LA 337 hybrid is designed for professionals who prioritize consistency and marketability. As a mid-early maturing hybrid, it allows for precise harvest planning, helping to mitigate the risks typically associated with end-of-season weather variability.

Field Performance and Management

In practice, 156 LA 337 provides predictable results when sowing densities are managed correctly. We recommend a density of 40,000–50,000 plants per hectare on lower-fertility soils and 65,000–75,000 plants per hectare on high-yield, fertile land. The dent-type kernel offers excellent moisture release, which significantly lowers post-harvest drying and conditioning costs.

Why Processors Prefer This Hybrid

• Food Industry: Exceptional quality parameters make this grain ideal for high-standard processing.
• Canning and Freezing: The kernels retain their structure, which is crucial for high-quality final food products.
• Versatility: A perfect balance between grain yield and suitability for deep processing.

By choosing French breeding from Lidea, you gain predictability. For an agronomist, this means less operational stress, and for the business, it ensures a steady supply of premium raw material. Optimal maturity timing ensures that harvesting equipment can enter the field exactly when needed, maximizing operational efficiency.
