ZMS 608Y

Medium Maturity

ZMS 608Y is a high-yielding three-way cross yellow maize hybrid, medium-tall with dark green plants. It features intermediate grain size and texture, suitable for both green maize and stock feed. Known for its relatively long cobs and potential for double cobbing under optimal management practices.

This medium-maturity three-way cross yellow hybrid matures in 115-120 days, yielding 10-12mt/ha. It offers moderate drought tolerance, good lodging resistance, and robust disease tolerance. Ideal for both stock feed and green maize, it features double cobbing, wider adaptation across all three agro-ecological zones (I, II, III).
