Grandio

The hybrid sweet corn Grandio is a powerful plant with high yield and universal use. It belongs to mid-late hybrids with FAO 430 and is characterized by dent-type grain. Plants reach a height of 270-290 cm, with ear length of 20-25 cm and 16-18 rows of 34-38 kernels. The 1000-kernel weight varies from 320 to 370 grams, indicating large and high-quality grain. Planting density is 65-70 thousand/ha in forest-steppe zones and 50-55 thousand/ha in steppe zones, with potential yield reaching 160 centners/ha. Grandio is distinguished by high drought resistance and a strong root system, which ensures resistance to lodging and allows the plant to maintain stable productivity even under dry steppe climate conditions. Plants are well-rooted and have broad erectoid-type leaves, promoting uniform ripening and rapid grain moisture loss at the end of the vegetation period. High above-ground biomass makes this hybrid especially valuable for silage production and biogas processing, expanding its application potential in agriculture. The genetic protection of the Grandio hybrid ensures resistance to major corn diseases such as helminthosporiosis, fusarium, gray mold, and corn borer infestations. This minimizes crop losses and reduces the need for intensive chemical protection. Thanks to its agronomic characteristics and universal application, the Grandio hybrid is a reliable choice for farmers focused on high productivity and quality yields.
