Description
The 25P91 Corn Seed Hybrid is a grain-focused hybrid designed for early maturity and exceptional yield potential. As an earlier-maturing version of the popular 24P96, it offers superior performance in regions with shorter growing seasons. Featuring a compact plant size and a semi-flex ear type, this hybrid excels in both irrigated and dryland conditions. With excellent heat and drought tolerance, 25P91 ensures consistent performance, even in challenging environments. While susceptible to Goss’s wilt, its adaptability, high kernel row count, and reliable standability make it a top-performing option for grain production.
Key Features and Benefits
1. Earlier Maturity
- 91-day maturity ensures faster drydown and timely harvest, particularly in regions with shorter growing seasons.
2. Grain-Only Production
- Compact plant size and high kernel row count make this hybrid ideal for maximizing grain yields, while it is less suited for silage.
3. Heat and Drought Resilience
- Performs exceptionally well under stress, maintaining ear size and yield potential in hot, dry conditions.
4. Strong Root System
- Excellent root strength enhances stability and standability, even in less-than-ideal growing conditions.
5. Versatile Placement
- Thrives across a wide range of soil types, from poor to moderately productive acres, providing flexibility for diverse farming needs.
Placement Recommendations
Optimal Placement
- Soil Types: Performs well in all soil types, including poor and moderately productive soils.
