About this product
Pioneer P9889 AQ
Pioneer P9889 AQ is a single-cross grain corn hybrid with a medium-late maturity (FAO 380) and a dent grain type. The hybrid belongs to the Optimum AQUAmax line and is created for the most efficient use of available moisture, delivering excellent drought tolerance and fast grain moisture release. The plant carries its ear high, resists stalk lodging, and produces grain with high test weight and high starch content, suited to grain and alcohol. The hybrid tolerates helminthosporiosis well and suits monoculture and minimum-tillage systems.
