P0725 Maize Silage Hybrid
Great performance with extraordinary consistency.
Delivers top-end silage yields in all warmer northern production regions.
- Optimum AQUAmax® drought tolerance provides resilience when it is dry and yield responsiveness with favorable growing conditions.
- Standability and notable staygreen provide a wide harvest window that contractors will appreciate.
- Produces high grain content silage with digestibility ratings that drive milk production.
Where Northern Leaf Blight is a concern consider P0900, the new AQUAmax® option, P0891 or P0937.

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 DM differences means the bolded hybrid was drier at harvest, negative DM 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.
