IR 350 by Ooo Niir Iragro: Versatility and Genetic Stability

In the landscape of modern crop production, finding a corn hybrid that balances yield potential with rugged reliability is the key to profit. The IR 350 hybrid, developed by Ooo Niir Iragro (originator Dmitry V. Dzgoev), is a dual-purpose solution designed for growers who prioritize grain quality and starch content alongside reliable silage production. Its agronomic profile is built to perform consistently, even when environmental conditions are less than ideal.

Resilience Against Pathogens and Pests

The standout feature of IR 350 is its robust genetic resistance package. The hybrid shows strong tolerance to boil smut (bubble smut) and natural resistance to the European corn borer. By mitigating these common threats, IR 350 allows farmers to lower their dependency on frequent chemical interventions, which is a major advantage for both cost-efficiency and sustainable agricultural practices. Furthermore, its resistance to onion stalk smut ensures that crop integrity remains high throughout the growing season.

Technical Specifications for Cultivation
