  • 100-110 days RM to silage harvest. Relative maturity for grain: 
    117-121 days. Excellent, durable, dual-purpose corn.
  • Tall, leafy hybrid offers exceptional grain yields under good 
    management and has performed exceptionally for silage.
  • Performs best in the California Central Valley from Redding to 
    Bakersfield and the desert Southwest.
  • Displays very good standability and good plant health throughout 
    the growing season.
  • Adapts well on all soils, including those with high pH.
  • Yields best at harvest populations of 30,000-32,000 ppa.
  • Plant up to June 20th for silage.
  • RM: Relative maturity is a system of classification by the seed 
    industry to indicate days to harvest or maturity. This figure 
    varies with date of planting, temperate and other field conditions.
