Yield leader with looks to match.

In southern regions, corn growers want a quick-maturing hybrid that can be harvested for either grain or silage.

Pioneer's P8500 hybrid is an excellent option for both harvest objectives.

The corn has high grain yield (CRM 85 ) and the sort of defensive traits growers expect.

When combined with its digestibility and dryland adaptability, you can understand why the P8500 is such a popular choice for corn growers in southern regions. such as in the western Districts, Gippsland and Tasmania.

Reduce the guess work and discuss on-farm options with one of our Pioneer Seeds farm services consultants. They have the knowledge and tools you need to minimise risk and maximise yield.
