Corn

P7326 was the biggest selling maize hybrid in the UK in 2023 (Source Kynetec, Farm Trak). PACTS results show P7326 is clearly an obvious choice for growers who are seeking a hybrid that will reach 30% dry matter quickly and produce good yields of high starch content silage. P7326 is a cold tolerant hybrid that has shown a high degree of adaptation to cultivation on less favourable locations or where sowing is delayed. It is also suited to favourable locations wherever an early harvest is required. P7326 has demonstrated very good early vigour
