Emilio corn is a high-yielding hybrid intended for cultivation as grain and green mass. Plants are strong, well-branched, with high reproductivity and cold tolerance. Plant height reaches 270-290 cm, and ear attachment height is 100-110 cm. Grain is cream-colored, with 1000-grain weight ranging from 320-340 g, ensuring high grain yield — approximately 80-81%. The number of kernels per row varies from 34 to 37, contributing to high yield.
The hybrid belongs to the mid-early maturity group with a vegetative period of about 250 days. Grain yield potential reaches 14 tons per hectare. Recommended plant density at harvest depends on the growing region: in areas with adequate moisture — 80-95 thousand plants per hectare, in regions with insufficient moisture — 65-70 thousand. Optimal density for harvest is 70-90 thousand plants per hectare.
Emilio is suitable for cultivation in various climatic zones, including Polesie, forest-steppe, and steppe. Thanks to its characteristics, the hybrid ensures stable and high yields, making it a profitable choice for agricultural producers. The hybrid is produced by the company KWS, known for the quality and reliability of its products.
