Maize Chigirinsky 267 SV

Stability and Performance in the Field

For agricultural operators looking for a versatile hybrid that balances grain production and silage potential, the Chigirinsky 267 SV offers a proven track record. Developed by the Institute of Plant Physiology and Genetics of the NAS of Ukraine, this three-line hybrid is designed for reliability and operational predictability.

Key Operational Parameters

• Maturity Profile (120–140 days): Requires precise scheduling. Knowing the exact maturity window allows for better logistical planning of harvesting equipment and drying capacity.
• FAO 90–1240: Provides enough flexibility for different regional climate conditions.
• Dent Grain Type: This trait is a significant advantage for logistics, as it facilitates rapid moisture loss, ultimately lowering drying costs at the elevator.

Field Resilience and Management

The primary advantage for the farm operator is the hybrid's natural defensive traits. In high-pressure environments, the Chigirinsky 267 SV shows high tolerance to stem rot and boil smut. This structural integrity minimizes lodging, which significantly simplifies harvesting: headers can work more efficiently, and grain loss at the gathering point is kept to a minimum.

Furthermore, its resistance to the European corn borer reduces the need for intensive insecticide applications, directly impacting the bottom line. With a recommended plant density of 50–55 thousand plants per hectare, the hybrid focuses on developing a well-filled ear and high-quality biomass, ensuring that both silage and grain outputs meet the required standards with minimal additional intervention.
