Maize TOS 218 MV

Technical Profile of TOSS 218 MV

TOSS 218 MV is a simple sugar corn hybrid developed by the National Scientific Center 'Institute of Agriculture of NAAS'. This product is engineered for agribusinesses operating in the fresh market, frozen food, and canning sectors, where consistency in yield and superior grain quality are essential for industrial processing.

Biological Resilience and Protection

With a maturation period of 90–100 days, this hybrid offers an optimized crop cycle, reducing vulnerability to late-season weather extremes. A critical technical feature of TOSS 218 MV is its inherent genetic resistance to helminthosporiosis and rust. By minimizing susceptibility to these common leaf pathogens, the hybrid reduces the dependency on chemical fungicide applications, lowering input costs and aligning with sustainable farming practices.

Agronomic Advantages

• Uniform Crop Structure: Being a simple hybrid, it ensures high uniformity across the field, which is vital for efficient mechanical harvesting and maintaining product consistency.
• Processing Versatility: The grain exhibits high quality in both texture and sugar content, making it an ideal candidate for industrial freezing and canning while maintaining integrity throughout the process.
• Local Adaptation: Bred in Ukraine, this hybrid is tailored to local soil and climatic conditions, providing stable productivity even under varying regional parameters.

TOSS 218 MV is a strategic choice for producers looking for a reliable, disease-resistant hybrid that delivers high-quality raw material suitable for demanding consumer markets and industrial processing applications.
