Selecting maize varieties based on your feeding requirements will help to ensure a high potential for increasing productivity on farm. Hunt Agri Services are able to recommend particular varieties to suit your region and field conditions. We can also give an accurate guide to the nutritional quality of all our hybrids, particularly starch and cell wall digestibility. The ability to match quality characteristics with feed requirements is a key consideration in selecting new hybrids.
Our maize selection focus for UK conditions is based on achieving high yielding, early maturing varieties with a high degree of stability. Our key selection traits are:
