You don’t have to look far to find high marks for HyPerformer.
The 1993 field test results are in!
Yes, we’re pleased. Almost as pleased as the growers who planted
HyPerformer com hybrids this year.
In fact, throughout corn country, the yields of HyPerformer HS corn hybrids
were consistently above average... regardless of the weather and soil type... in
irrigated and non-irrigated com. They earned the name — HyPerfbrmers.
Stable High Yield Potential!
Consistent yield record in hot or cool seasons
Very good heat and drought stress tolerance
Excellent response to top management
Fast seedling growth, lots of stay green
through the growing season
Exceptional heat and drought stress tolerance!
Big healthy plant with wide dark green leaves on
a healthy stalk
Very rapid drydown on a green, healthy plant
Widely adapted, silage and grain potential
With either high stress or maximum yield
conditions, this hybrid is the KING!
Ask us for the area results on these high performing hybrids.
