Corn RK 216 MV is a high-yielding hybrid intended for cultivation on fields aimed at producing grain and feed. This hybrid exhibits good agronomic characteristics, making it popular in agriculture. The plant is tall, with medium-width leaves and a cylindrical, medium-thickness ear, which contributes to effective yield formation.
The hybrid belongs to the mid-early maturity group with a vegetative period of approximately 100-130 days, allowing its use in various climatic conditions. The grain has an intermediate type, closer to silken, with an orange coloration on the upper and lower parts. The thousand-grain weight is about 315-316 grams, and the grain yield reaches 85%. Grain yield in different regions can reach 39-45 centners per hectare, and green mass yield can reach up to 370 centners per hectare.
RK 216 MV is resistant to several diseases, including stalk rot, ear blight, and bacterial disease, and exhibits moderate resistance to ear fusarium and stalk borer damage. The hybrid does not lodge and is well-suited for mechanized harvesting, which simplifies agronomic operations and increases production efficiency.
