P9127
P9127 Maize Grain Hybrid
Bred to defend – yields to impress.
Early maturity Optimum AQUAmax® offering yield stability for grain and silage.
- Tall plant with strong roots, stalks, drought tolerance and staygreen combined with solid leaf disease resistances.
- Good husk cover and ear rot resistances.
- Often produces a second cob resulting in higherthan- expected grain yields.
- Yields best in moderate to high yielding paddocks.
Companion with P8666, P8805 or P9400.
Widely adapted to all North Island growing regions where a hybrid of this maturity is required.

Scientific Designation
= very highly significant yield advantage to Pioneer
= highly significant yield advantage to Pioneer
= significant yield advantage to Pioneer
NS = not significant
CA = commercially acceptable
1 Positive HM differences means the bolded hybrid was drier at harvest, negative HM differences mean it was wetter.
2 A positive yield advantage means the bolded hybrid produced more yield, a negative yield advantage means it produced less.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Hybrid comparisons are only valid within a range of + or - 4 CRM. These descriptions mainly feature product strengths. When choosing hybrids, also review carefully the trait ratings found in the table here. Contact your local Pioneer Area Manager or merchant representative for further advice.
