P7364
P7364 Maize Silage Hybrid
The new standard for yield & earliness.
Like P7524 but has better husk cover and is quicker to harvest.
- Dependable agronomic package with high ratings for early growth, drought tolerance and staygreen.
- Moderate in plant height with low ear placement and superior standability.
- Delivers high silage yields, for maturity, with top-of-the-line energy and digestibility ratings.
- In medium to high potential situations plant 5,000 plants/hectare more than applied for P7524.
Replaces P7524 for growers requiring a hybrid earlier than P8000 or P8086.

Scientific Designation
= very highly significant yield advantage to Pioneer
= highly significant yield advantage to Pioneer
= significant yield advantage to Pioneer
NS = not significant
CA = commercially acceptable
1 Positive DM differences means the bolded hybrid was drier at harvest, negative DM differences mean it was wetter.
2 A positive yield advantage means the bolded hybrid produced more yield, a negative yield advantage means it produced less.
