About this product

LG 31479 Silage Corn (FAO 440)

LG 31479 is a medium-late silage corn hybrid rated FAO 440, developed for high-agro-background fields across Ukraine's moisture-varied zones. Its LGAN profile pairs a pronounced stay-green plant type with a dent grain and high digestibility, holding an optimal grain-to-silage ratio. Drought tolerance and early vigour both score 9/9, so it establishes evenly and carries stress through the season. Lodging resistance at 8/9 supports a clean silage harvest.
