Maize KV 6 F 576

Corn KV 6 F 576 is a high-yielding, medium-early simple hybrid with universal usage — for grain and silage. This variety is characterized by high cold resistance and rapid growth rates in the early vegetative stage, ensuring stable plant development under various climatic conditions. Plant height reaches about 260 cm, and ear attachment height is 98 cm. The grain type is silicified-toothed, contributing to good harvest quality. The hybrid’s potential yield is up to 15.9 t/ha, while average yield over test years reaches 11.0 t/ha.

One of the key features of KV 6 F 576 is its high drought resistance, which significantly exceeds average corn values. The hybrid can maintain normal growth rates even with insufficient irrigation, making it especially valuable for cultivation under limited water supply. After reaching physiological maturity, corn demonstrates very rapid water shedding, facilitating harvest and reducing yield losses. Strong plant structure ensures resistance to lodging, further reducing yield risks under adverse weather conditions.

The hybrid exhibits high resistance to major corn diseases such as helminthosporium, fusarium, and common rust, with resistance ratings of 7–8 points. This allows for reduced pesticide use and a healthier, higher-quality harvest. Recommended plant density varies by region: 80–90 thousand plants per hectare in the Polesie region, and 60–70 thousand in steppe zones. KV 6 F 576 is a reliable and productive hybrid combining high yield, stress and disease resistance, and adaptability to various growing conditions.
