R9363 — a universal mid-late maturing corn hybrid with dent kernel type, intended for multi-purpose use, including grain, starch, ethanol, silage, and biogas production. The plant is compact with optimal ear attachment, ensuring good resistance to stalk and root lodging. The hybrid exhibits high water use efficiency and excellent drought tolerance, making it a reliable choice for various climatic conditions.
The hybrid has a FAO rating of approximately 310, corresponding to a mid-late maturing period. It is well-suited for cultivation in monoculture and minimal soil tillage systems, and allows for late harvest. Early and optimal planting is recommended; late planting is not advised. To achieve optimal yields, follow the recommended plant population at harvest: 65-70 thousand plants per hectare under adequate moisture and 60-65 thousand under limited moisture.
For crop protection, apply post-emergence herbicides strictly according to corn growth stages. The hybrid demonstrates good resistance to smut diseases, rated 6 out of 9, contributing to reduced yield losses. Due to its characteristics and versatility, R9363 is an effective solution for farmers aiming to produce high-quality grain and silage suitable for biogas installations.
