This hybrid is widely adaptable, however
it is not adapted to late planting dates or
conditions with gray leaf spot pressure
In the absence of corn borer damage,
performs similar to 3394

for exceptional resistance to ECB and
intermediate resistance to corn earworm
Moderate resistance to gray leaf spot, and
it is well suited for no till, continuous corn
