2Y739 113-day RM (HXX/RR)
- Produces high yield with outstanding grain quality
- Adapted east to west across central Corn Belt
- Performs best at medium to medium-high plant densities
- Good companion to 2T780 family
NC+
5717VT3 114-day RM (YGVT3/RR2)
- Widely adapted, top-end product
- Good tolerance to gray leaf spot
- Improved stalks, roots
- Avoid areas with high green snap potential
5882VT3 115-day RM (YGVT3/RR2)
- Excellent choice for early planting. Well adapted to variable soil types.
- Stalks, roots provide excellent late-season standability
- Performs well in high stress environments
