Management Comments

  • Long time proven medium-early stress hybrid with cream colored grain
  • Best adapted to dryland or areas with limited irrigation
  • Semi-open head type that dries fast and allows for earlier harvesting
  • Very good on high pH soils where iron chlorosis is a problem
  • Sets the standard for dryland production, limited tolerance to sugarcane aphid
  • Because of its smaller seed size, monitor planting rates carefully
