Maize Horol SV

Consistent Yields in Unpredictable Environments

The Khorol SV hybrid from the Institute of Agriculture of the NAAS is a choice for agronomists prioritizing predictability and reliability. Unlike many imported hybrids that demand intensive cultivation and costly crop protection, this simple hybrid demonstrates impressive adaptability to Ukrainian soil and climatic conditions.

Key Advantages

• Crop Health: Genetic resistance to a complex of diseases, including loose and head smut and stalk rots, minimizes the risk of grain quality loss even under high-humidity conditions.
• Pest Tolerance: Exhibits strong tolerance against the European corn borer, allowing for optimized insecticide spending.
• Versatility: With its dent grain type and 110–120 day maturity cycle, the hybrid effectively unlocks its potential for both grain production and silage.

Who is this hybrid for?

Khorol SV is an optimal solution for farms practicing moderate-intensity agriculture. It does not require 'greenhouse' conditions while ensuring a stable yield of biomass for silage and high-quality grain. The broad FAO range (90–1240) allows for flexibility in sowing dates, adapting to specific regional conditions and moisture availability.

Strengths: Exceptional field resistance to pathogens and pests, combined with excellent moisture release during ripening.
Note: To achieve maximum yield potential, precise planting density is essential, taking into account the specific background of your field.
