Overview
High, stable yield with solid agronomics.
Wide area of adaptation allows use as an early season alternative.
Good late-season health makes it a good candidate for delayed harvest.
Very good ear flex supports variable plant densities.

Management Guidelines
Semi-flex ears support medium-low to medium-high plant densities.
Good choice for continuous corn, corn/soybean or corn/wheat rotations.
Good root strength makes it a solid choice for poorly drained soils.
Avoid areas with high gray leaf spot or Goss's wilt pressure.
Manage plant populations to improve performance in droughty soils.
Early finishing and fast grain drydown supports northern adaptation.
