KWS ACADO sugar corn is a mid-late maturity hybrid with dent kernel type, developed for high yield under drought conditions. This hybrid features a strong root system and sturdy stalk, ensuring resistance to lodging and stability under extensive cultivation. Plants reach a height of 250-280 cm, with ear attachment height of 100-120 cm, facilitating easy harvesting and good ear development. The number of rows per ear is 16-18, with 30-32 kernels per row, and a 1000-kernel weight of 280-300 g. Yield potential reaches 15 tons per hectare.
The KWS ACADO hybrid is recommended for cultivation in forest-steppe and steppe zones, where varying levels of moisture are observed. Optimal seeding density at harvest time is 70-80 thousand plants per hectare under adequate moisture, 50-60 thousand under unstable moisture, and 45-50 thousand under insufficient moisture. Rapid water release and high pollen production make this hybrid especially effective for obtaining high-quality grain under challenging climatic conditions.
A distinctive feature of this hybrid is its remontant plant type with erectoid leaf morphology, which enhances photosynthesis and resistance to adverse factors. Seed packaging contains 50 thousand seeds, convenient for planning planting operations. KWS ACADO is a reliable choice for farmers aiming to achieve stable and high yields of corn even under limited moisture conditions.
