Maize KWS EC 503

Corn KWS EC 503 is a mid-early hybrid with dent-type kernels, characterized by high yield potential and rapid early growth. This variety features very rapid water shedding, allowing its use for early planting dates and ensuring high harvest efficiency. Plants are robust and tall, reaching 250-260 cm in height, with ear attachment heights of 75-85 cm. The ear is well-formed, containing 33-36 kernels per row, with 1000-kernel weight ranging from 270 to 340 g, indicating good kernel fill and high product quality.

Hybrid KWS EC 503 exhibits high drought tolerance, making it suitable for cultivation in areas with limited water availability. Recommended plant population at harvest is 75-85 thousand/ha in areas with adequate moisture and 60-65 thousand/ha in drier regions. Yield potential reaches 16 t/ha under intensive cultivation practices, enabling full expression of the hybrid's genetic potential.

For successful cultivation of corn KWS EC 503, it is essential to ensure sufficient soil moisture in the top layer during planting, which promotes uniform and reliable emergence. Seeds are packaged in multi-layer bags, providing convenience and safety during transportation. The hybrid is resistant to gray leaf spot and gummy ear disease; certified agrochemicals, including herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, are recommended as needed to maintain plant health and stable yields.
