Maize Smotrich MV

Genetic Potential and Adaptability

The maize variety "Smotrych MV" is a result of breeding efforts by the National Scientific Center "Institute of Agriculture of NAAS". Unlike modern intensive hybrids, this variety demonstrates high plasticity under variable moisture conditions. Yield stability is achieved through a balanced FAO (90–1240) and a vegetation cycle of 110–120 days, allowing the crop to efficiently utilize accumulated active temperatures.

Phytosanitary Barrier

The technical value of "Smotrych MV" lies in its complex resistance to key pathogens that limit maize productivity. Genetic resistance to root and stalk rots minimizes the risk of lodging late in the season, which is critical for combine harvesting. The variety's defensive profile includes mechanisms against common smut and rust, reducing the need for fungicide treatments without compromising the market quality of grain and silage.

Agrotechnical Parameters

• Usage Type: Dual-purpose (grain and silage), making the variety a flexible tool for mixed-profile farming operations.
• Sowing Density: Optimal performance is achieved at 60–70 thousand plants per hectare, depending on regional moisture availability.
• Biological Resistance: The variety effectively manages field infection pressure, including threats from rots and stalk smut.

"Smotrych MV" is a balanced solution for farmers seeking predictable results with moderate investment in intensive protection technologies.
