Flavius

The Flavius hybrid maize is a mid-season variety with FAO 280, intended for grain production. Plants reach a height of about 270 cm, with ears positioned at approximately 100 cm. The grain is cream-colored, with rows ranging from 16 to 18 and kernels per row from 28 to 34. The 1000-kernel weight is 304 grams, and the grain moisture content at harvest is within 13-14%. The yield potential reaches 155 centners per hectare, making this hybrid a high-yielding choice suitable for cultivation under various climatic conditions. Flavius exhibits high resistance to adverse factors: drought and lodging resistance are rated at 8 and 9, respectively. Additionally, the hybrid shows tolerance to diseases such as stalk and ear fusarium, helminthosporium, and ear rot, ensuring reliable and stable yields. The recommended planting density varies depending on the moisture zone: under low moisture conditions, 65-70 thousand plants per hectare is optimal, while under adequate moisture, 75-80 thousand plants per hectare is recommended. The Flavius hybrid is suitable for cultivation in various agroclimatic zones and provides high-quality grain, making it popular among agricultural producers. Due to its characteristics, it is an excellent choice for achieving stable and high yields of maize grain.
