Maize DKC4590WX

The DKC4590WX corn hybrid is a mid-season hybrid with a dent kernel type, intended for cultivation in various climatic zones, including Polissia, Forest Steppe, and Steppe of Ukraine. It is adapted to loamy and sandy loam soils under conditions of adequate moisture and exhibits high yield potential due to intensive cultivation practices. The soil temperature for sowing should not be lower than 10°C, and the optimal plant density varies from 50-60 thousand per hectare in dry zones to 70-75 thousand per hectare in more moist soils.

DKC4590WX features high drought and stress tolerance, ensured by a strong root system and high resistance to common corn diseases such as fusarium, helminthosporium, and smut. The hybrid has a high rate of water release during maturation, facilitating timely harvest and reducing loss risks. High starch content (over 72%) and 1000-kernel mass within the range of 280-350 grams indicate high grain quality.

Morphological characteristics include plant height from 240 to 270 cm, number of rows of kernels from 16 to 20, and number of kernels per row from 37 to 42. The hybrid is resistant to monoculture and requires traditional soil preparation. Due to its agronomic properties and adaptability, DKC4590WX is a reliable choice for obtaining a stable and high-quality corn grain yield under various soil-climatic conditions.
