FEIZ is an early-maturing three-line hybrid corn variety intended for silage production. It is characterized by a vegetative period of approximately 86 days and medium-height plants reaching 160-170 cm. The hybrid is distinguished by high yield, with an average of 12.67 t/ha and a maximum of 29.24 t/ha. Due to its early flowering and strong initial growth, FEIZ rapidly accumulates dry matter, exceeding the standard by 10%, ensuring high-quality silage with high fiber digestibility.
The hybrid exhibits good resistance to major corn diseases, including downy mildew, powdery mildew, and ear Fusarium, confirmed by a tolerance rating of 8 points. For optimal development, a planting density of 70-75,000 plants per hectare is recommended under adequate moisture conditions, and 60-65,000 plants per hectare in areas with limited moisture. The sum of effective temperatures for silage production is 1560°C, and up to flowering — 720°C.
FEIZ is a reliable choice for farmers in the Northwest region aiming to produce high-quality silage with excellent nutritional properties. Its average number of rows per ear is 12-14, with 30-32 kernels per row, contributing to dense and productive mass. Thanks to its combination of high yield, disease resistance, and silage quality, this hybrid holds a worthy position among early corn hybrids.
