Gran 220

Corn Gran 220 is a medium-early three-line hybrid of grain type with maturity group FAO 210. This hybrid is characterized by strong initial growth and rapid water release, ensuring effective maturation and high grain quality. Plants reach a height of about 280-285 cm, with ear attachment height of approximately 110 cm. The grain has a cream-colored, toothed structure, which contributes to its high nutritional value and broad usage, primarily for grain purposes, but also suitable for silage applications.

Gran 220 has a high yield potential, reaching up to 135 c/ha, making it one of the best hybrids on the Ukrainian market. The ear forms between 406 and 464 kernels, arranged in 14-16 rows, with 29-35 kernels per row. The hybrid adapts well to various climatic conditions in Ukraine, demonstrating resistance to frost in early vegetation, drought during ear formation and maturation, as well as lodging in windy weather.

Special attention is given to the disease and stress resistance of Corn Gran 220. The hybrid shows high resistance to helminthosporiosis, fusarium, blister rust, and lodging, ensuring stable yields even under adverse conditions. Recommended planting density varies by region: 80-90 thousand plants per hectare in the Polissia, 65-80 thousand in the Forest-Steppe, and 60-70 thousand in the Steppe. Cultivation of this hybrid is effective using zero-tillage technology and timely insect and weed control treatments during the growing season.
