Farmodena corn is a medium-early hybrid with high cold resistance and drought tolerance, making it suitable for cultivation under various climatic conditions. Plants reach a height of 250 to 280 cm, exhibit plasticity and adaptability to different cultivation technologies, including semi-intensive and intensive. The hybrid features rapid early development and is suitable for early planting, ensuring efficient use of the growing season.
The corn kernels of Farmodena are dent-type, with a cream-dent type, distinguished by high starch content. The ears are cylindrical, medium-long and thick, with rows of kernels ranging from 14 to 18 and kernels per row from 34 to 42. The 1000-kernel weight varies from 260 to 340 grams, indicating a high yield potential of up to 18 tons per hectare. The kernels have yellow and orange hues, and the moisture content at harvest is approximately 20%, facilitating subsequent processing and storage.
The Farmodena hybrid exhibits high water release speed, allowing for optimal harvest timing and reducing the risk of yield loss. It shows tolerance to synthetic auxins and ALS inhibitors, broadening the range of available plant protection products. It is recommended to grow using medium and intensive technologies, ensuring optimal planting density depending on moisture conditions. Thanks to its characteristics, Farmodena is a reliable choice for achieving stable and high corn yields.
