Maize CESARUS

Reliable Yields in a Short Season

German breeding by Strube is synonymous with a pragmatic approach: minimizing risks while maximizing output. The "Caesarius" hybrid is a grain-focused corn variety designed for farmers who prefer to finish harvesting before the autumn rains set in. With a maturity window of 90-100 days, this simple hybrid features excellent dry-down rates, which is crucial for reducing post-harvest drying costs.

Field Performance and Key Advantages

• Strong Adaptability: The hybrid thrives in temperate climates. German breeding ensures high lodging resistance, allowing for clean mechanical harvesting even if the harvest window is delayed.
• Moisture Management: "Caesarius" is recognized for its "technological" edge. The kernels lose moisture rapidly, which simplifies logistics and allows for delivery to elevators without the need for expensive secondary processing.
• Consistency: As a simple hybrid, it offers uniform plant height and maturity, which makes combine settings easier and improves the overall threshing quality.

Who should choose Caesarius?

"Caesarius" is the optimal choice for agricultural producers in regions with shorter growing seasons or those using corn as a rotational crop before winter wheat. Given its vigorous early development, it competes effectively with weeds, though it requires precise plant density management to reach its full ear potential. It is essential to focus on nutrient application during the 6-8 leaf stage, as this is when the yield potential per row is determined.
