LG31240 sweet corn seeds are a mid-early hybrid with a dent kernel type, intended for grain production. This variety is characterized by high initial growth energy, ensuring rapid and uniform plant development. The average height of the corn plant is approximately 281 cm, with a maximum of 365 cm. Each row contains 30 to 40 kernels, and the number of rows per ear varies from 14 to 18, contributing to high crop yield.
The LG31240 hybrid exhibits excellent stability and high stress tolerance, including drought tolerance, confirmed by ratings on a scale from 1 to 9: yield potential — 9, water shedding rate — 9, lodging resistance — 8, tolerance to flat-spike disease — 9, and resistance to fusarium — 8. These characteristics make this variety a reliable choice for cultivation under various climatic conditions, especially in the Polesie, Forest-Steppe, and northern Steppe regions.
For optimal development, seeds should be sown in warmed soil, considering the zone-specific planting density: in adequately moist zones — 65-85 thousand plants per hectare, in areas with insufficient moisture — 55-65 thousand/ha, and in arid regions — 45-55 thousand/ha. Seeds are supplied in 50,000-seed bags, produced in Europe by Limagrain and GMO-free. Due to its agronomic and economic qualities, LG31240 is an effective solution for achieving high yields of sweet corn.
