Corn KV 4 ER 1502 is a feed hybrid intended for grain and silage production. It is an early-maturing variety with a vegetation period of approximately 95-100 days, allowing for harvest within relatively short timeframes. The plant is medium-height, reaching 230-240 cm, with a straight, strong stalk that does not lodge or break, simplifying care and harvest. The cylindrical ear, approximately 20 cm long, contains 16 rows of kernels, each with 34-36 kernels, ensuring high yield and product quality.
This corn variety exhibits high resistance to diseases and pests, as well as good tolerance to adverse weather conditions, including drought and cold. Thanks to these characteristics, KV 4 ER 1502 is widely used in agriculture for feeding various livestock, including poultry and rabbits, providing them with a nutrient-rich source. Corn contains a significant amount of protein, making it a valuable component of vitamin-protein rations for livestock throughout the cold season.
For successful cultivation, it is recommended to prepare the soil in autumn by deep plowing and removing weeds. Sowing should occur when the average air temperature is not lower than +12 degrees Celsius; seeds can be soaked prior to planting to accelerate germination. Plants require regular watering, timely fertilization, and removal of suckers after the emergence of 5-6 leaves to direct nutrients toward ear development. Artificial pollination is often employed to increase yield, enabling even beginners to achieve good results when cultivating this low-maintenance crop.
