ES Blackjack - Mid to late maturity maize

Blackjack was introduced to the market last year from the same breeder as ES Palladium
Blackjack has a similar dry matter yield to its sister variety but is slightly earlier to mature
As well as exceptional dry matter yields Blackjack boasts high levels of starch, ME and cell wall digestibility, making it equally suitable for forage or energy applications
Blackjack has also demonstrated exceptional yield capability when grown under plastic film with growers claiming best ever results with this variety in harvest 2023
Robust standing power completes an impressive set of characteristics for this newcomer to the maize market

ES Palladium has entered 2024 NIAB/BSPB descriptive list as the highest yielding maize hybrid currently available
ES Palladium is a large impressive hybrid with very high dry matter yield currently available and is suitable for both the forage and energy markets
With high levels of starch, ME, cell wall digestibility and impressive standing power, Palladium offers an unbeatable combination for those looking to maximise yield and quality
Cob set is uniform on a very robust stem which gives exceptional standing power and plant stability especially on exposed sites
Capable of producing over 20 tonnes per hectare of dry matter yield on favourable sites makes ES Palladium the ideal variety for those looking to maximise yield potential

P7948 is another versatie hybrid from Pioneer which is suitable for a number of different end user markets
P7948 is a mid to late maturity hybrid offering exceptional yield and quality
Good standing power is a major benefit for the grain maize market where P7948 has proved itself to have one of the highest grain yields of any variety grown in the UK
The energy maize market is also ideally suited to P7948 where the combination of consistently reliable maturity and high dry matter yield will appeal to those growing maize on more favourable sites
