Maize KSS 5180

Corn KSS 5180 is an early-maturing hybrid with a vegetation period of about 117 days and FAO 250, intended for cultivation in the Central Chernozem and Volga regions. The plant is tall with moderate leaf height and weak anthocyanic tint of the first leaf sheath. The hybrid is resistant to Fusarium and ear rot, ensuring stable yields and protection against common corn diseases.

The KSS 5180 grain is cream-colored and toothed, with rows per ear ranging from 12 to 16 and kernels per row from 26 to 34. The 1000-kernel weight varies from 300 to 320 grams, and the grain color is predominantly orange. The hybrid is characterized by high yield: in the Central Chernozem region, average yield is about 74-77 centners per hectare, with maximum yields reaching 105 centners per hectare, while in the Volga region, yield can reach 83.7 centners per hectare. In certain areas such as Voronezh, Belgorod, and Ryazan, yield reaches 115-125 centners per hectare.

To achieve optimal results, it is recommended to observe appropriate planting density: 80-90 thousand plants per hectare under favorable conditions, and 60-65 thousand under drought conditions. KSS 5180 is a reliable and stable hybrid suitable for grain production, offering high productivity and resistance to adverse factors.
