DKC48-56RIB BRAND BLEND
Positioning
DKC48-56RIB Brand Blend is a 98 RM product that is widely adaptable except in areas with high levels of historic Goss's Wilt pressure. It can bring top-end yield potential to our lineup as well as nice overall field appearance.
Strengths & management
- Very good top-end yield potential
- Good drought stress tolerance
- Very nice late season appearance and standability
- Very good test weight and grain quality
- Plant with confidence from east to west in the 95 to 100 RM zones
- Taller plant type helps provide dual purpose potential
- Product shows decent ear flex but can take high populations on more productive soils
- Some greensnap risk exists so position carefully in areas of historic high risk
