Hybrid corn P 7404 is an early-maturing variety with a vegetation period of 103 to 112 days, making it suitable for early planting and harvest within a short timeframe. Plants have a height ranging from low to medium, reaching about 230 cm, with strong anthocyanic coloring of the first leaf sheath and rounded or blunt leaf tip shape. Ear density is medium, and the grain exhibits a flinty-toothed type with yellow-orange coloring on the upper part and orange on the lower part.
P 7404 demonstrates high adaptability and stable yield, confirmed by its inclusion in the State Register across several regions, including Central, Volga, Far East, and Central Chernozem. Average grain yield ranges from 74.8 to 83.5 c/ha, with record yields reaching 127 c/ha. The hybrid possesses high drought tolerance, cold resistance, and resistance to lodging (both stem and root), making it a reliable choice for various climatic conditions.
The hybrid’s use is universal: it is suitable for grain, silage, and ethanol production. Plants are well-balanced with optimal cob compactness, contributing to high-quality harvest. Thanks to its excellent early development and resistance to adverse factors, P 7404 is a reliable leader among early corn hybrids, ensuring consistent and high yields.
