Maize Atlas 347

Consistent Yields Across Diverse Moisture Zones

«Atlas 347» is a product developed by the Selection and Genetics Institute (Ukraine), specifically tailored for intensive grain farming. As a simple hybrid with flint-dent grain, it has become a reliable solution for farmers prioritizing a balance between high yield potential and technological flexibility.

Agrotechnological Features and Sowing Density

The primary advantage of this hybrid is its adaptability to plant density, allowing it to be tailored to the specific moisture conditions of the farm:

• Moisture-deficient areas: the recommended density is 55,000–60,000 plants per hectare. Under these conditions, the hybrid exhibits excellent stress tolerance and maintains high grain test weight.
• Well-watered or irrigated areas: the planting density can be increased to 75,000–80,000 plants per hectare. In this scenario, «Atlas 347» fully utilizes its productivity potential, producing a well-filled ear with high grain output.

The grain type (flint-dent) ensures an optimal combination of rapid moisture loss during maturation and high starch content, which simplifies post-harvest processing. This makes the crop efficient for farms looking to optimize logistics and drying costs.

Why choose «Atlas 347»?

Practitioners value this hybrid for its predictability. Its biological profile allows for the implementation of efficient protection schemes, as the vegetation period (FAO 340) provides sufficient time for full development of the leaf apparatus and effective photosynthesis. Sowing this hybrid is ideal for operations focused on producing high-quality commercial grain suitable for export or deep processing.
