_This hybrid is widely adaptable east to west, north to south and across a wide range of soil types. It features very good stress tolerance with a solid disease package including very good tolerance to Gosss Wilt, Eye Spot and Northern Leaf Blight. It has a strong all-around agronomic package that leads to excellent top-end yield. Keep the planting population on the high end due to the semi-determinate ear type. It is slightly susceptible to Growth Regulator herbicides (2,4-D, dicamba) so avoid these if possible._
