A7818G2 RIB

  • Tall plant with extremely long lasting stay-green. Outstanding disease tolerance for heavy disease-prone fields. The flexier nature of the ear does not require high seeding rates for optimal yields. Excellent option for defensive acre and clay soils. Populations should be kept at 30-32,000 pl/acre and timely harvest is recommended to maintain stalk integrity. A risk of stalk cannibalization when in low potash levels.
