The plant is characterized by high stature, medium-wide leaves, and a cylindrical ear of medium length and diameter. The grain of the hybrid is intermediate type, closer to dent, with the upper part orange and the lower part yellow-orange. The vegetation period varies from 78 to 145 days depending on the region, allowing the hybrid to adapt to different climatic conditions and ensure a stable yield.
The hybrid Ludmila SV exhibits increased drought and heat tolerance, making it a reliable choice for cultivation under variable climate conditions. It also has a weak anthocyanin pigmentation of various parts of the plant, which is a characteristic feature of this variety. Grain yield in different regions ranges from 63.3 to 119 c/ha, with moisture content at harvest ranging from 4.5% to 23.6%, indicating good adaptation of the hybrid to cultivation conditions and ease of harvesting.
Ludmila SV is resistant to lodging and stem breakage, which helps preserve yield under adverse weather conditions. The hybrid is recommended for grain and silage production, expanding its application in agriculture. Thanks to its optimal combination of yield, stress tolerance, and grain quality, Ludmila SV is a competitive hybrid on the market, capable of ensuring a stable and high corn yield.
