Management Guidelines

  • Best performance at moderate plant densities; avoid aggressive plant densities.
  • Position on more productive soils with a good fertility program. Timely nitrogen management is key to optimal performance.
  • Position early in the harvest schedule.
  • Best performance when positioned within 94-98 RM environments. Avoid moving south out of this RM range.
  • Use caution on lighter soils with low fertility.
