Description
Stable Yields in Challenging Conditions
The PR38A79 hybrid from Pioneer s.a. is a proven choice for operations focused on high-quality grain production. Known for its robust genetics, this hybrid offers exceptional resistance to lodging and pathogens, which is essential for modern, intensive farming practices.
Field Performance and Agrotechnology
The dent-type grain structure ensures excellent dry-down rates as the crop reaches maturity. For producers, this translates into optimized harvesting schedules and significant savings on drying costs. With a maturity window of 140-160 days, this hybrid is perfectly suited for regions with a longer growing season, where it can reach its full yield potential.
Disease Resistance and Reliability
One of the primary benefits of PR38A79 is its strong defense against common corn diseases. Field experience shows that even under high disease pressure, the crops maintain structural integrity thanks to high genetic resistance to loose and boil smut. This allows growers to optimize their fungicide programs, effectively lowering the cost per ton of grain.
- Hybrid Type: Single cross;
- FAO: 90–1240;
- Primary Use: Grain production;
- Adaptability: High resistance to corn smut species.
By choosing PR38A79, growers invest in predictable outcomes and technological efficiency, backed by the global expertise of Pioneer s.a..
