Kiparus corn hybrid is a mid-early hybrid with a hard kernel type, designed for intensive cultivation technologies. Plants reach a height of 260-270 cm, with ears attached at a height of 85-95 cm. The medium-length and thickness ear contains 14 rows of kernels, each with 30-34 kernels. The 1000-kernel weight is 300-310 g, indicating a large-kernel hybrid. The kernels are yellow-orange in color, and the hybrid has rapid moisture release, facilitating harvesting and reducing losses during storage. The Kiparus hybrid exhibits high resistance to adverse environmental factors, ensuring stable yields even under challenging climatic conditions. The recommended planting density at harvest is 75-85 thousand plants per hectare under favorable conditions and 55-65 thousand under unfavorable conditions. The yield potential reaches 140 centners per hectare, and in some regions, under optimal conditions, yields may be significantly higher. The average dry matter content in the plant is 36.5-39.2%, making it suitable for use both as grain and for silage. Kiparus is included in the State Register for the Central Chernozem and Volga regions and is recommended for cultivation in the Polesye, Forest-Steppe, and Steppe zones. The hybrid is characterized by plasticity and adaptability, enabling successful cultivation under various agroclimatic conditions. Features of the plant's structure, such as a small angle between the leaf blade and stem, as well as weak anthocyanin pigmentation, indicate its resistance and good physiological activity. The hybrid is produced by KWS and registered between 2014-2016.
