Maize Ovidius 295 MV

Proven Stability of Ukrainian Selection

The «Ovidiy 295 MV» hybrid is a result of the systematic breeding work at the Selection and Genetics Institute (National Center for Seed Science and Cultivar Research). As a simple, dent-type hybrid, it has earned a long-standing reputation as a reliable tool for commercial grain production within the specific climatic conditions of Ukraine.

Agronomic Profile

This variety belongs to the mid-season maturity group, with a vegetation period of 110–120 days. With an FAO rating of 295, the hybrid strikes an optimal balance between yield potential and moisture loss during maturation, facilitating efficient harvesting and reducing post-harvest drying costs.

Disease Resistance and Field Health

The core strength of the Ovidiy 295 MV lies in its natural defensive mechanisms, which are crucial for minimizing yield losses under pressure from common pathogens and pests:

• Disease resistance: Strong resilience against common and head smut, as well as stalk rot.
• Pest tolerance: Significant resistance to European corn borer damage, which maintains crop integrity throughout the season.

The dent-type grain structure ensures high test weight, making it a competitive choice for the grain market. This hybrid is a strategic solution for producers who prioritize proven genetics and stable performance over experimental varieties that may lack the same level of local adaptation.
