P8000 Maize Grain Hybrid

Widely adapted, versatile stalwart.

P8000 is tall, with low ear placement, strong roots and stalks for dependable standability.

  • Strong staygreen, Northern Leaf Blight and Rust resistances that deliver season long eye appeal.
  • Good husk cover over a chunky cob with deep dent grain with high test weight.
  • Yields well and has fast drydown.

A popular choice in the lower North Island and South Island, while providing a balance of yield and earliness in northern growing regions.
