DKC3409 sweet corn is a mid-early hybrid with high yield potential, characterized by high initial growth energy and adapted to cultivation on all soil types. This hybrid is recommended for grain use and features a dent kernel type. The optimal planting density at harvest time is 75-80 thousand plants per hectare, ensuring maximum productivity under both adequate and unstable moisture conditions.
DKC3409 exhibits high resistance to adverse environmental factors, including drought and cold, confirmed by cold and drought resistance ratings of 7 out of 10. The hybrid also shows excellent water shedding and high resistance to stalk and ear fusarium, significantly reducing the risk of yield loss. Due to its stability and plasticity, the hybrid performs well in monoculture and can withstand short-term delays.
For successful cultivation, traditional or minimal soil preparation is recommended at soil temperatures not below 8°C. The hybrid responds well to intensified mineral nutrition, which contributes to increased yield. Seed packaging contains 80 thousand seeds, enabling efficient planning of sowing areas and ensuring uniform plant distribution across the field.
