Characteristics Legend

  • Plant Height: S = Short, M = Medium, T = Tall, VT = Very Tall
  • Kernel Texture: VS = Very Soft, S = Soft, M = Medium, H = Hard
  • Starch Amount: 1 = Low, 9 = High
  • Early Starch Availability: 1 = least readily available, 9 = most readily available
  • Plant Disease Rating: 1 = Poor, 9 = Excellent
  • R = Glyphosate tolerant
  • GT = Agrisure® GT Glyphosate tolerant
  • Silage type:
    • LF = Leafy hybrid
    • LFL = Leafy Floury Hybrid
    • DP = Dual Purpose Hybrid
    • SP = Silage Specific Hybrid
  • DBR or E hybrid ending in 2 R:
    • VT Double PRO® RIB Complete® Corn with 5% Refuge in the bag. European Corn Borer and Corn Earworm resistant; glyphosate tolerant.

Caution: Herbicide sensitivity,
​​​​​​​Avoid post-emergent application of Group 27 & 28 herbicides (ex. Converge®, Callisto®, Impact™) on Leafy Silage hybrids. Leafy hybrids have shown increased injury after postemergent
application of Group 27 & 28 herbicides in comparison to other hybrids.
