ROSS 130 MV is an early-maturing first-generation corn hybrid with a vegetation period of about 80 days. It was developed through joint work between the Federal State Budgetary Institution "NII Z named after P.P. Lukyanenko" and LLC NPO "Kubanzerno" and is intended for cultivation in various regions of Russia, including the Volgo-Vyat, Middle Volga, Ural, West Siberian, and East Siberian regions. The plant reaches a height of 170–210 cm, with the ear forming at a height of 50–75 cm. The main stalk develops 12–13 leaves, and the ear has a weakly conical shape with 12–16 rows of kernels, each row containing up to 36 kernels, with a length of approximately 14.3 cm and diameter of 3.4 cm. The kernel type is cream-colored and dent-like, closer to dent, providing good technological properties.
The hybrid exhibits high resistance to diseases and lodging, contributing to stable yields even under adverse conditions. The 1000-seed mass is 260–270 grams, indicating good seed quality. Grain yield varies depending on the region and growing conditions, reaching maximum values of up to 90.3 centners per hectare, with average yields around 24 centners per hectare. These characteristics make ROSS 130 MV an attractive choice for farmers seeking high and stable yields.
The hybrid is suitable for cultivation both for grain and silage, expanding its application potential in agriculture. Early tasseling and a short vegetation period allow this hybrid to be used in regions with a short warm season. High adaptability and reliability make ROSS 130 MV an effective solution for agrarians aiming for optimal combinations of yield, quality, and resistance to adverse factors.
