Corn 26 IR is an early super-sweet Sh-2 type hybrid designed to produce high-quality products with excellent taste. Plants are robust, 180-190 cm tall, with well-developed root systems, ensuring high resistance to lodging and adaptability to various growing conditions. Each plant forms two full-sized cylindrical ears, 24-27 cm long and about 5 cm in diameter, with 16-18 evenly arranged rows of bright yellow kernels, distinguished by high sugar content — over 10-12%.
The ear maturation period is 75-78 days after emergence, allowing for the production of early-harvested products for the fresh vegetable market. The hybrid exhibits high yield and marketability, with a potential yield of 1.5-2.0 kg per square meter. Ears retain well after harvest, expanding storage and transportation options. The primary use of Corn 26 IR is fresh consumption, freezing, processing, and canning.
This hybrid combines strong early growth with high water efficiency, promoting stable development and high productivity. Due to its characteristics, Corn 26 IR is suitable for grain and feed production, ensuring stable yields and high product quality. To create a continuous product flow, it is recommended to plant in multiple seasons.
