Syngenta Seeds maize varieties top the 2011 NIAB Descriptive List
NK BALERIC has the highest metabolisable energy (ME) yield on the 2011 NIAB Descriptive List at 233,000 MJ/ha. This maize is the ultimate in feed value per hectare offering those in favourable maize-growing areas of the UK the best possible opportunity to maximise their output of milk, meat or biogas per hectare of crop.
When it comes to pure dry matter yield, NK JASMIC is unbeatable at favourable and less favourable sites with yields of 20.6 t/ha and 19.8 t/ha respectively. NK Jasmic provides all growers with an opportunity to benefit from the highest yields that the Descriptive List has to offer, even those in slightly more marginal situations.
