P0937
P0937 Maize Grain Hybrid
Solid hybrid with next generation grain yield.
A widely adapted high yielding hybrid. Now the benchmark in this maturity.
- Very appealing modern plant type, with low ear placement, erect leaves, notable standability and sound husk cover.
- Combines superior resistances to Northern Leaf Blight and Rust with strong stress emergence, exceptional staygreen and drought tolerance.
- With average test weight it will not match the food corn grain quality of P0891 and P1253.
P0937 is extensively planted in moderate to high yielding situations in Northland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay growing regions.

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 HM differences means the bolded hybrid was drier at harvest, negative HM 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.
