Hybrid Corn MAS 7168

Dear farmer, MAS 7168 by Millan Agro is a specialized double-cross hybrid designed to deliver massive green biomass for high-quality silage. This variety is celebrated for its exceptional height, broad leafy structure, and robust stalk strength, making it a reliable choice for dairy farmers. It combines high tonnage with high nutritional value, ensuring your livestock receives the energy needed for maximum milk production. MAS 7168 is built to thrive in Pakistan's varying climate, offering stability and high performance throughout the season.

Variety of Key Features & Benefits

Double-cross hybrid technology for enhanced vigor and field stability Exceptional plant height with a very high leaf-to-stem ratio Broad succulent leaves that stay green for a longer duration Strong stalk and root system to prevent lodging during maturity High starch and energy content in the grain for superior silage quality Excellent tolerance against heat stress and seasonal environmental changes Uniform cob development ensuring consistent feed quality across the field

Application / Usage Guidelines

Prepare a well-pulverized and leveled field to ensure even moisture Maintain a row-to-row distance of 60 to 75 cm for optimal silage density Ensure a plant-to-plant distance of 15 to 20 cm for high population Apply Phosphorus and Potash fertilizers during the final land preparation Ensure timely application of Nitrogen at the knee-high and tasseling stages Manage irrigation carefully during the critical silking and grain-filling phases

Recommended Crops / Use Areas

Maize (Makai) Specifically optimized for commercial and dairy silage production Suitable for green fodder and grain purposes in diverse soil types

How to Germinate

Ensure the soil has optimal "watter" (moisture) before sowing. Sow the seeds at a depth of 3 to 5 cm for strong seedling emergence. Avoid sowing in overly compacted soil to prevent stunted early growth. Maintain a soil temperature above 15 degrees for quick sprouting. Seeds typically emerge within 5 to 7 days under standard summer conditions. Monitor the field closely during the first week to protect emerging shoots.

How Seeds Help Farmers Grow More Profitable

MAS 7168 is a profit-driven choice because it maximizes the output of every acre. The high biomass volume means more silage bags or pits from the same amount of land, reducing the overall cost per kg of feed. Because it is a double-cross hybrid, it offers better consistency across different field conditions, minimizing the risk of crop failure. The high digestibility of MAS 7168 silage directly translates to better animal health and increased milk yields, putting more profit in the farmer's pocket.

Sowing & Usage Guidelines

One bag of 35,000 seeds is the standard recommendation for one acre Sow during the recommended provincial windows for maximum yield potential Harvest for silage when the grain reaches the milk-line stage (65% moisture) Chop the plants to the correct size (1 to 2 cm) for better packing and fermentation Ensure the silo is airtight to prevent spoilage and maintain nutritional value

Sowing Time Across Provinces

Punjab: February to March (Spring) and July to August (Autumn) Sindh: January to February and August to September Khyber Pakhtunkhwa: March to April and July to August Balochistan: February to May

FAQs

What does 35,000 seeds mean?

A: It is a precision count pack designed to provide the ideal plant population for one acre of silage.

Is MAS 7168 better for silage or grain?

A: While it produces grain, its massive biomass and stay-green trait make it a top choice for silage.

How long does it take to harvest for silage?

A: It is typically ready for the silo within 85 to 95 days after sowing.

What is a "Double Cross" hybrid?

A: It is a hybrid made from four inbred lines, providing more stability and vigor in diverse field conditions.

Can it withstand high temperatures?

A: Yes, MAS 7168 is bred for high heat tolerance, making it suitable for Pakistan’s summer.

What is the ideal moisture for silage harvest?

A: The ideal moisture level is between 60 to 70 percent for the best fermentation results.
