Corn LG 30189 — this is a mid-early hybrid with FAO maturity group 210, developed by Limagrain in Hungary. It features a dent kernel type, which ensures rapid moisture loss, as well as a high yield potential. Plants have an average height of about 260 cm, an average number of rows per ear of 14-16, and 33 kernels per row, with a 1000-kernel weight of approximately 290 g. This hybrid is suitable for cultivation as grain or silage, and is recommended for early planting.
LG 30189 is distinguished by its rapid early growth and early flowering, helping to avoid stressful situations during the mid-vegetative period. The hybrid has high tolerance to aerial smut and ear fusarium, enhancing its disease resistance. Thanks to the HYDRANEO technology, this seed material is optimized for drought resistance, allowing it to maintain yield even under water stress. LG 30189 shows the lowest yield regression coefficient under increasing drought intensity, making it a versatile hybrid for various climatic conditions.
To achieve maximum results, LG 30189 is recommended to be cultivated using classical technology in crop rotation with fertilizer application, with the option for monoculture under soil rotation and application of starter doses of phosphorus fertilizers on a sufficient potassium background. Optimal planting density depends on the moisture zone: in adequately moist zones — 75-90 thousand plants per hectare, in moderately dry zones — 65-75 thousand, in drought-prone conditions — 55-60 thousand plants per hectare. The sum of effective temperatures for reaching grain moisture of 35% is 1680 °C.
