Management Guidelines

  • Highly recommended for silage use within its adapted maturity.
  • Performs best at moderate to high plant densities.
  • Recommended for silage, earlage, and high-moisture corn.
  • Harder kernel texture will benefit from a kernel processor.
  • Manage appropriately on fields with a history of Goss's wilt.
  • Monitor harvest moisture closely as harvest approaches. Hybrids may be drier or wetter than physical appearance indicates.
