Maize Ginko

Austrian Genetics for Reliable Yields

The Ginko maize hybrid from Saatbau is designed for farmers who require versatility in their crop management. By choosing this hybrid, producers gain a dual-purpose resource: it is equally effective for high-yield grain production and the creation of high-energy silage for livestock operations.

Agronomic Performance and Field Application

With a maturity period ranging from 120 to 140 days, Ginko is well-adapted to various climate zones, making the most of the growing season's thermal capacity. As a single-cross hybrid, it offers excellent stand uniformity, which simplifies harvest operations and allows for precise adjustments of combine harvesters.

• Grain Production: The hybrid shows a strong dry-down capacity, which is a critical factor in reducing energy costs during post-harvest grain drying.
• Silage Preparation: The plant structure provides a balanced ratio of vegetative mass to cob, directly impacting the nutritional value and digestibility of the final forage.

Strategic Utility

Ginko by Saatbau is a pragmatic choice for operations looking to balance intensive farming techniques with stability. It performs consistently in fertile soils when planted at the density recommended by the breeder. Incorporating Ginko into your crop rotation allows for operational flexibility, enabling management to decide whether to harvest for grain or silage based on current market trends or seasonal weather variations.
