Maize AS 33 009

AS 33 009 is a medium-early simple dent corn hybrid developed for cultivation in the North Caucasus region. The hybrid features a medium plant height of about 200 cm and an ear attachment height of 44 cm, facilitating harvesting and good crop development. The ear contains 16 rows of kernels, with approximately 42 kernels per row, and a 1000-kernel weight of 290 g. The leaf position is semi-nodding, which promotes optimal photosynthesis and weather resistance.

AS 33 009 exhibits high drought resistance and resistance to major corn diseases, including fusarium, blister and smut, as well as helminthosporiosis, with resistance ratings of 8 to 9 points. The hybrid is characterized by good stalk condition at the end of the vegetation cycle and low damage from corn borer. The average dry matter content in the cultivation region is 38.2%, ensuring high-quality yield.

Hybrid AS 33 009 is recommended for both grain and silage production. It is suitable for direct seeding and demonstrates high yield potential — average normalized dry matter yield reaches 127.7 c/ha, with potential yield reaching 161 c/ha. Due to its agronomic traits and adaptation to regional climatic conditions, this hybrid is a reliable choice for farmers seeking stable and high-quality corn yields.
