Livorno

Livorno sweet corn is a high-yielding hybrid with a short growing period and medium-early maturity, suitable for double cropping. Plants reach a height of approximately 3.10 meters, with ears positioned at 1.40 meters. The dent-type kernels form in 14–16 rows, each containing about 42 kernels. The 1000-kernel weight is approximately 350 grams, and the grain density ranges from 72–78 kg/ha, indicating high-quality yield.

The Livorno hybrid demonstrates high adaptability to various soil and climatic conditions, ensuring stable yield and quality grain in commercial plantings. It exhibits good tolerance and resistance to major corn diseases such as helminthosporium and fusarium, as well as enhanced drought and extreme temperature tolerance. These traits reduce maintenance costs and improve economic efficiency.

Livorno is suitable for cultivation on all soil types and produces high-quality silage with good greenness, making it a versatile choice for feed applications. The optimal planting density is 90,000–95,000 plants per hectare, maximizing yield potential. This hybrid from Semillas Fito combines stability, high productivity, and excellent technological performance, making it attractive to farmers focused on efficient grain and silage production.
