BARCELOS is an early-maturing three-line hybrid corn (Zea mays L.) intended for cultivation in the Central and Volga regions. It is characterized by moderate resistance to stalk rot, which contributes to a stable yield and reduced losses during storage. The hybrid’s maturity period is early, enabling the harvest of grain and silage in a short time, which is especially important for regions with a limited growing season.
The hybrid BARCELOS has a sufficiently high yield: in the Central region, the average grain yield is about 74.9 c/ha, and in the Volga region — 63.9 c/ha, with maximum yields reaching 92.0 c/ha. These results make this hybrid attractive for farmers focused on obtaining high-quality grain and silage. Due to its characteristics, BARCELOS is suitable for various uses, including feed production and grain for food purposes.
The BARCELOS hybrid has also been noted in corn cultivation studies, where it demonstrated high yields compared to other hybrids. Its stable yield performance and adaptability to climatic conditions make it a reliable choice for farmers aiming for efficient and sustainable corn production.
