Maize Dneprovsky 181 SV

Corn Dneprovsky 181 SV is a simple modified hybrid of Ukrainian selection with FAO 180, intended for grain and silage production. This early-maturing hybrid has a vegetation period of 90-105 days and reaches a height of 230-240 cm. The ear has a conical shape, 20-22 cm long, with 14-16 rows of yellow-orange, dent kernels, 34-36 per row. The 1000-kernel weight is approximately 260-280 g, indicating good kernel density. Rapid moisture reduction during the ripening phase facilitates drying and preparation of the harvest for storage.

The hybrid exhibits high yield stability with potential of 100-110 c/ha for grain and 550-590 c/ha for silage. It adapts well to various soil-climatic conditions, allowing successful cultivation in the natural zones of Polissia, Forest Steppe, and Steppe of Ukraine. Plants have strong and elastic stems resistant to lodging, and a well-developed root system ensures drought resistance. Recommended pre-harvest planting density varies by region: 50-60 thousand plants/ha in the Steppe, 75-90 thousand plants/ha in Polissia.

Dneprovsky 181 SV shows high resistance to major diseases such as Fusarium, stalk rot, blister rust, rye rust, and root rot, as well as to damage by pests. High-quality fungicidal seed treatments are recommended for enhanced protection. Seeds have high germination energy, ensuring quick and uniform emergence, as well as good early development. Seeds are packed in multi-layer, strong paper bags of 80 thousand units, ensuring material preservation during transport and storage.
