Maize KUBANSKIY 247 MV

KUBANSKIY 247 MV is a mid-early hybrid sweet corn, characterized by high yield and excellent resistance to various types of lodging. The plant reaches a height of up to 2-2.7 meters, forming a sturdy upright bush. The vegetation period to the first ear is about 75-80 days, allowing the hybrid to successfully adapt to early planting dates and avoid stressful conditions in the middle of the vegetation period. The ears have a cylindrical shape, 18-20 cm long, with hard, wide kernels of light-yellow color, possessing a sweet taste, making the variety ideal for processing, preservation, and canning.

The hybrid exhibits high initial growth energy and tolerance to drought and other stress factors, ensuring stable development and high yield. The average grain yield reaches 83.1 c/ha, confirming its effectiveness under various climatic conditions. Corn is heat-loving, with a minimum germination temperature of 13 degrees, so planting is recommended at the end of April — beginning of May. For optimal growth, seeds are sown at a depth of about 6 cm with row spacing of 60-70 cm, at a seeding rate of 20 g per 10 m² or 60-70 thousand plants per hectare.

Special attention should be paid to fertilization, irrigation, and pest control, with the main pest being the corn earworm. Since the sugar content of corn rapidly decreases after harvest, it is important to ensure a short time interval between harvest and consumption or processing. Due to its characteristics and adaptability, KUBANSKIY 247 MV is a reliable choice for cultivation both in private households and on an industrial scale.
