KM 2170

Stable yields in changing conditions

The KM 2170 corn variety from Genex Ukraine is a choice for farmers who prioritize predictability and adaptability. Unlike high-intensity foreign hybrids that require ideal conditions, KM 2170 demonstrates remarkable plasticity, remaining productive even with deviations from standard technological maps.

Agronomic profile

The key feature of this variety is the combination of early maturity and dent-type grain. The 90–100 day maturation period (FAO 90–1240) allows for use in early crop rotations or late-season planting. The dent grain structure ensures a high yield of commercial grain and facilitates easier drying, reducing energy costs during post-harvest processing.

Strengths and considerations

• Stability: Due to Ukrainian breeding, the variety is highly adapted to regional climatic stressors.
• Cost-efficiency: As a variety-type seed, it allows farmers to manage their budget without the annual premium required for first-generation elite hybrids.
• Usage: Ideal for farms focusing on commercial grain with minimal risks of yield loss during maturation.

KM 2170 does not compete for records in ultra-intensive systems where yields are pushed solely by massive fertilizer inputs. Its strength lies in reliability. For small to medium-sized farms where confidence in the end result at a reasonable cost is paramount, this variety serves as a balanced and effective tool.
