G33 Grain Sorghum Hybrid
When the going gets tough, growers rely on G33 grain sorghum.
Don’t be fooled by this fighter; G33 has proven to yield higher if environmental conditions are right.
A safe and reliable inclusion in each grain sorghum cropping program.
A shorter hybrid with very good stalk strength means G33 has excellent standability, especially when under stress which will makes it a very attractive option for growers.
G33 has low staygreen levels which enables quick harvest dry-down. The hybrid also offers excellent cold tolerance which makes it a great option for cold starts.
This hybrid has good-sized red grain on a semi-open head type.
Through the inclusion of G33 in Pioneer Seeds advanced agronomy extension trials, we are able to substatiate what growers have observed in their own paddocks. Quicker on the spring plant than the other hybrids in the Pioneer Seeds grain sorghum range, G33 offers the opportunity to partner with A66 to spread the risk of heat or moisture at key flowering dates, and drys down slightly quicker for growers who do not dessicate their crops, allowing better management of resources at harvest. In summer, it offers true strength through to harvest alongside other reliable hybrids in the Pioneer Seeds range.
In the 2024/25 season, G33 will be include in the Pioneer Seeds field demonstration sites, throughout Key growing regions. Can't find a field day near you? No problem, take a look at this video from our resource centre showcasing an excellent paddock of G33 grain sorghum at Brookstead on the Western Downs of Queensland.
