Maize RGT FONXXIONEL

Reliability and Defense: French Selection Potential

In the face of an unpredictable climate, farmers are increasingly focusing on hybrids with enhanced phytosanitary protection. «RGT FONCTIONNEL» from the French breeding center RAGT is a powerful response to the major challenge of intensive agriculture: pathogen infestation. The key advantage of this hybrid lies in its genetically programmed resistance to maize fusarium, which significantly minimizes the risk of harvest quality loss during rainy autumns or soil waterlogging.

Agronomic Traits and Crop Management

From a biological standpoint, this is a simple hybrid with a flint-dent grain type, making it highly versatile for grain production. With a maturity period of 120–140 days and an FAO range of 90–1240, «RGT FONCTIONNEL» is aimed at professional producers looking to maximize grain yields per hectare.

• Density Flexibility: The hybrid allows for a seeding rate variation between 45,000 and 70,000 plants per hectare, depending on regional conditions and soil fertility. In arid zones, the recommended lower density (45k–50k) helps the plant reach its cob potential without moisture competition.
• Plant Health: The robust resistance to fusarium is more than just a claim; it translates into direct savings on fungicide applications and ensures that the final grain meets high quality standards, free from mycotoxins.

This hybrid is an optimal choice for operations located in regions with high fungal disease pressure that require consistent and predictable results. «RGT FONCTIONNEL» performs reliably under standard agricultural practices, proving its value through stable yields and excellent grain health.
