Maize Laureen

Maximizing Yield Potential with the Laurin Hybrid

Limagrain's expertise in breeding is reflected in the Laurin hybrid, a versatile solution designed for professional farmers who demand consistency. Developed by Limagrain Europe, this simple hybrid is engineered to perform across diverse environments, offering a unique combination of high-energy grain production and excellent silage biomass quality.

Key Agronomic Features

Laurin is characterized by its flint-type grain, which is prized for its density and high nutritional value. With a starch content of 76 %, it stands out as an excellent choice for both industrial processing and livestock operations where feed quality is paramount. Its 140–160 day maturity period allows for efficient accumulation of biomass, provided the growing conditions are managed effectively.

Strategic Sowing Density

To ensure the best results, the sowing density should be tailored to your specific field conditions and available water resources. Limagrain recommends the following guidelines:

• Intensive conditions with irrigation: 80,000–85,000 plants/ha.
• Optimal field conditions: 75,000–80,000 plants/ha.
• Water-restricted or lower-fertility zones: 65,000–70,000 plants/ha.

By choosing Laurin, you are leveraging high-quality French genetics designed for durability and performance. Whether your primary goal is high-moisture grain or high-quality silage, Laurin delivers the reliability expected from a Limagrain product.
