TWEETOR

Grain corn - FAO appr. 440 - Z

The new, late maturing variety convinced in our own selection trials with maximum yields and best stability. This excellent performance is mainly realized with distinctly superior single cob yields. Compared to other late maturing varieties, TWEETOR shows more grains per cob, and the number of grain rows (up to 20) is more pronounced as well. 50,000 healthy plants/ha and cob yields of 300 g result in 15 t of dry corn mass/ha – a number that can absolutely be reached with TWEETOR.
