Maize I 3911

Silage Potential of Ukrainian Selection

The I 3911 hybrid occupies a solid niche in the specialized silage segment of the Ukrainian agricultural market. Developed by domestic breeders, this simple hybrid is focused on producing high-energy feed for livestock complexes. Under intensive farming conditions, it has proven itself as a stable source of high-quality biomass with a starch content reaching 72%, which is a decisive factor for the energy value of cattle rations.

Field Biological Reliability

The breeding of I 3911 is aimed at solving the primary phytosanitary challenges of corn fields. The hybrid demonstrates genetic resistance to common smut, which significantly reduces yield losses in regions with high infection pressure. Additional immunity to fusarium and head smut makes it predictable in production, minimizing the costs of fungicide protection.

Cultivation and Technology

The agronomic flexibility of I 3911 allows for adjusting seeding density based on moisture levels and soil fertility. Recommended planting parameters range from 65,000 to 85,000 plants per hectare:

• 65–70k plants/ha: optimal for high-risk farming zones and moderate moisture.
• 75–80k plants/ha: standard for farms with a sufficient level of agricultural technology.
• 80–85k plants/ha: intensive technology for high-yield backgrounds, unlocking the genetic potential of the ear and stalk mass.

Choosing I 3911 means relying on time-tested Ukrainian genetics that balance seed costs with the output of feed units per hectare.
