brief description: a 3way hybrid universally adapted maize variety, a top yeilder & a farmer's delight. it is long season crop that matures in 120 days.
physical attributes: massive plant architecture, long & fat cobs with excellent root system that makes it lodging tolerant.
recommended spacing: 0.25cm x 0.75cm to give 53,333 plant population per hectare
grain size/color: the grain size is large which makes it adaptable to mechanized planting & contributes to heavier weight per unit volumes seed weight per cob is between 300-350g @12% moisture content. the color is white & dent.
seed rate: 25kg per hectare with its large grains excellent for mechanization.
yield: 10-12 mt/ha with good agronomic practice(gap)

Nice

Nice yield! For me this is outstanding

Few questions please

1) How many cobs does a plant normally comes up with?

2)Is it truly correct that seeds per cob weigh up to 300g? Can you please demonstrate it for us using an electronic scale? If this is true then your yield is not far from the correct position. In fact rough and dirty estimate will give you about 15 tons and that's a cool number @ 90k per ton looking at a gross revenue of 1.3m per hectare in 120 days is a gold mine

3)Is it drought resistant? This 120days is a problem to me. It is not by accident that most maize cultivars you see are 75days. It is because of our ecology. I will explain - Prior to this period, you have enough rain for maize cultivation in south west by April. But now, the earliest period you can plant maize is May. So you have May, June and by mid Jully, you run into August break so effectively you have about 75days but you are looking at 120 days so how do you resolve this paradox? Except the cultivar is drought resistant - it will be a tough one

I wish to patronize the cultivar but please, address the questions and the concerns

Thanks

which kind question be this na . Who has time to count the cobs on a maize or weighing it.? Why not buy it and start counting cobs?
