  New Year, New Yield Resolutions 22.01.2026 36min

  Seed corn package diversity is more than relative maturity. Hybrids build yield in a variety a ways - ear length, ear girth, kernel weight. It's important to know how each product gets to the finish line and what package can work best on your acres.On today's podcast, the Wyffels agronomy managers discuss our yield component trials. Wyffels has conducted research to better understand how individual hybrids express their yield components. Hybrids are planted at low and high populations to determine how hybrid yield components change, or "flex", in response to stress. Ears are collected to determine how the girth, length, and kernel weight are affected by stress. Differences are converted to a percentage to show how each yield component influences total ear flex by product. You can fine-tune management to protect genetic yield potential by knowing how hybrids respond to stress.Links discussed in this episode:Our Corn Products - Wyffels HybridsRequest our Product Guide with Yield Component Information.Between the Rows® - Fungicide Use on Wyffels HybridsWyffels Hybrids Trial ResultsWe want to hear from you.
