The hybrid corn DS1071C is a simple type with dent kernel shape, developed by Dow Seeds through careful selection of superior parent lines. It has a high yield potential, reaching up to 16 tons per hectare, and is characterized by excellent grain quality. This hybrid belongs to the mid-early maturity group and is primarily intended for cultivation in regions with hot climates and moderate moisture levels, where intensive farming technologies are applied.
DS1071C demonstrates good seedling emergence and rapid early vegetative growth, contributing to successful plant development. Plant height ranges from 230 to 250 cm, with ears positioned between 100 and 110 cm and characterized by large size with 16-18 rows of kernels, each containing 35 to 40 kernels. The plant’s regenerative ability is well developed and does not affect maturation speed or grain moisture loss, ensuring stable yields.
The hybrid exhibits high stress tolerance, including good cold resistance and excellent drought tolerance, as well as strong stalk strength and well-developed root system. DS1071C has excellent moisture shedding, promoting timely maturation and reducing losses during harvest. It is recommended to sow the hybrid at the earliest possible date, as soon as weather conditions permit, with optimal plant density to achieve maximum productivity.
