Maize Borisfen 430 AMV

Borisfen 430 AMV is a medium-late corn hybrid with FAO 430, designed for cultivation in various agroclimatic zones of Ukraine, including the Steppe and Forest-Steppe. The hybrid is characterized by high yield and drought resistance, making it especially valuable for regions with variable weather conditions. Plants reach a height of 280–300 cm, with an ear length of 24–26 cm and cylindrical shape, containing 14–16 rows of dent-type kernels in yellow-orange color. The 1000-kernel weight is 320–350 g, and grain yield reaches 82–84%.

The Borisfen 430 AMV hybrid exhibits high resistance to major diseases and pests, including smut diseases, helminthosporiosis, blister and ear-leaf rust, Fusarium rot, and corn borer. Due to higher anthocyanin content in the stalks, plants tolerate short-term spring frosts well. High lodging resistance (9 points) allows for late harvest without significant yield losses. The hybrid has good water use efficiency and is suitable for intensive cultivation technologies involving mineral fertilizers and irrigation.

Borisfen 430 AMV is versatile in use: it is suitable for grain production with potential yields of 8–14 tons per hectare, as well as silage production, providing high yields of green mass with elevated dry matter content up to 35%. It is recommended to avoid monoculture planting and apply post-emergence herbicides according to plant growth stages. Optimal planting density varies depending on conditions — from 60 to 70 thousand plants per hectare. The hybrid is an original Ukrainian product with confirmed quality and certifications.
