EG 2099

French Breeding for High-Yield Farming

The Lidea EG 2099 corn hybrid is an intensive-type crop designed for agricultural enterprises aiming for maximum yield per hectare. Developed by French breeders, this hybrid bridges the gap between high-performance grain production and reliable forage harvesting.

Agronomic Strengths and Potential

The primary advantage of the EG 2099 is its adaptability combined with an intensive growth model. With a medium-early maturity (FAO 90–1240), the hybrid optimizes water usage during critical development stages, ensuring predictability in regions with variable climatic conditions. By choosing EG 2099, farmers gain:

• Superior grain yield potential, typical of the Lidea intensive lineup.
• Dual-purpose utility: excellent results whether harvested for grain or high-quality fodder.
• Genetic robustness: built-in resistance to Fusarium and common smut (Ustilago maydis) minimizes the need for heavy fungicide applications.

Why Choose the EG 2099?

This hybrid is an optimal choice for farms with advanced agronomic practices that can provide the necessary nutrient supply. Unlike extensive varieties, the EG 2099 responds remarkably to fertilizer, converting inputs into high-density biomass and well-filled ears. It is an essential tool for logistics optimization, as its stable maturation cycle simplifies seasonal harvest planning.

Its origin (breeder: Av Du Capitaine N Tchorere, 80270 Airaines, France) guarantees adherence to strict European quality standards for planting material.
