Maize Bogatyr

Bogatyr corn is a high-yielding hybrid with dual-purpose use, intended for grain production as well as for silage and biogas. This mid-season hybrid with FAO maturity group 290 features a strong root system and high resistance to adverse weather conditions, including drought and sharp temperature fluctuations. Plants are tall, reaching heights of 3.2 to 3.4 meters, with ears positioned between 100 and 120 centimeters. The ears have a conical-cylindrical shape and contain 14 to 16 rows of glassy kernels, with a 1000-kernel weight of approximately 320 grams.

The Bogatyr hybrid exhibits high yield potential: for grain production, the genetic potential reaches up to 12 tons per hectare, while green mass yield can reach up to 85 tons per hectare. In real field conditions, yields typically range between 95-100% of the potential, corresponding to 480-620 centners per hectare. Recommended planting density depends on soil moisture levels: 85-90 thousand plants per hectare with adequate moisture, 65-75 thousand with insufficient moisture, and 45-55 thousand under unstable moisture conditions.

Bogatyr corn demonstrates high tolerance to diseases such as downy mildew and helminthosporium, as well as strong regenerative capacity, allowing all parts of the plant to be utilized for processing. The hybrid is suitable for extensive cultivation technologies and is recommended for planting in the Polissya and forest-steppe regions. Seeds are packaged in convenient multi-layer bags of 50 thousand units, ensuring ease of transport and storage.
