Profile
AROLDO is a maize variety that matures quickly and has excellent early growth. Despite its tall appearance, the hybrid possesses excellent lodging resistance and stem stability. The cob has 16 kernel rows and a good cob filling all the way to the tip. The grain is a flint-dent-genetic intermediate type. The silages yield a considerable amount of biogas and have a starch level that is above average. Great yields were also achieved when the hybrid was tested in Germany, Denmark, and Austria.
This variety is presently tested at the NIAB for national listing.
