Maize Collective 244 MV

Reliable Grain Production with Local Adaptation

"Kolektyvnyi 244 MV," developed by the Cherkasy IAPV UAAN, is a field-proven hybrid designed for efficiency and stability in the Ukrainian climate. As a simple hybrid, it is specifically focused on grain production. The dent-type grain structure provides excellent moisture release during maturation, allowing farms to optimize post-harvest logistics and reduce drying costs.

Resilience Against Common Pathogens

A key practical advantage of this hybrid is its robust genetic resistance to diseases that often jeopardize yields. It demonstrates significant tolerance to stalk rots, fusarium, and common smut. Furthermore, its resistance to the European corn borer helps reduce the dependency on intensive insecticide applications, making it a sound choice for integrated crop management programs.

Density Recommendations for Optimal Yields

With a maturity period of 120–140 days (FAO 90–1240), this hybrid offers the flexibility needed for various field conditions:

• For rain-fed systems or regions with limited moisture, a density of 55,000–60,000 plants/ha is recommended.
• Under irrigation or in regions with favorable hydro-thermal conditions, the density can be increased to 85,000–90,000 plants/ha to maximize yield potential.

"Kolektyvnyi 244 MV" is an ideal choice for agricultural producers looking for a reliable, disease-resistant hybrid that balances agronomic performance with consistent grain quality.
