Management Guidelines

  • TMF silage hybrids are bred for high yield potential for both stover and grain components; a planned fertility program that provides adequate N, P and K throughout the season is highly recommended.
  • Good choice where gray leaf spot, northern corn leaf blight or Goss's wilt tolerance is needed.
  • Performs best at moderate plant densities.
  • Best on highly productive soils.
  • Recommended for silage, earlage and high-moisture corn.
