Kharkivskyi 315 MV

Corn hybrid Kharkivskyi 315 MV is a medium-maturing, highly adaptable hybrid developed by Monsanto. It is characterized by excellent plasticity and high cold resistance, allowing sowing at soil temperatures as low as 7 degrees. The hybrid performs well in both northern and southern regions, adapting to various soil types and cultivation technologies, including traditional methods and no-till technology. The recommended plant density at harvest is 55 to 75 thousand plants per hectare, which contributes to achieving maximum yield.

The plant features a strong stem of 230 to 250 cm in height, capable of forming one high-quality ear, which is positioned at a height of 100-110 cm. The ear has a weak conical shape with a length of 20-22 cm and a diameter of 4.0-4.5 cm, containing 14-16 rows of kernels, each with 28-30 kernels, totaling 390-450 kernels per ear. The kernels are dent-type, light yellow in color, with a 1000-kernel weight of 310-340 g, which ensures rapid moisture release at maturity and facilitates harvesting.

Hybrid Kharkivskyi 315 MV is characterized by high yield — 112 to 144 centners per hectare at 14% moisture. It exhibits high resistance to lodging, drought, and tolerance to diseases such as helminthosporiosis and fusarium. Due to these qualities and stable yield, this hybrid is suitable for both grain production and silage preparation, revealing its potential under intensive cultivation technologies.
