RACEHORSE YIELDS FOR YOUR GOOD GROUND
• This is simply the highest-yielding conventional 104-day hybrid available
• Shows excellent yield performance across most soil types, but avoid poorly
drained soil
• Very good drydown
• Semi-flex ear allows good performance even with variable populations
• Best-suited to 105-day corn country, don’t push it north as a late hybrid
(late-flowering)
• Manage for timely harvest due to potential for late-season standability
