NP 2656

Reliable Yield: Field Experience with NP 2656

Selecting a hybrid is a strategic decision for any farm manager. Syngenta's NP 2656 has proven to be a reliable workhorse in our fields. We cultivate it for both high-quality grain and silage, making it a versatile asset in our crop rotation.

Field Health and Pest Resistance

For those in the field, time is money. NP 2656 significantly reduces time spent in the sprayer cabin thanks to its genetic resistance to various pathogens. We have observed excellent protection against common corn smut, fusarium, and root rots. This level of biological robustness means we spend less on fungicides and worry less about yield losses due to sudden disease outbreaks.

Operational Performance

• Versatility: It performs consistently well whether you are harvesting for grain or ensiling for livestock feed.
• Disease Management: The hybrid shows strong resistance to rust and stalk rots, simplifying the spraying schedule and cutting down on operational costs.
• Maturity: With its medium maturity, it fits perfectly into our harvest calendar, allowing for efficient field logistics without rushing against early autumn frosts or excessive moisture.

NP 2656 is a choice for those who prioritize predictability. It is a stable, low-maintenance hybrid that responds well to standard agricultural practices. If you are looking for a variety from the Swiss breeders that consistently delivers at the end of the season, this is a solid investment. It allows you to focus on the harvest rather than firefighting issues in the field.
