Kernel number vs. kernel mass: N = A kernel number hybrid, where yield is driven more by the number of kernels; M = A kernel mass hybrid, where yield is driven more by the mass of each kernel; N/M = A hybrid that is slightly above-average in terms of yield being driven by both kernel number and kernel mass. Final seeding population: Population in 000s ppa that is the ideal target for this hybrid. Where conditions are less favourable, move to the lower range of the population recommendations. Plant height: S = Short; M = Medium; T = Tall Disease ratings: NCLB = Refers to Northern Corn Leaf Blight ; ANTH = Refers to Anthracnose
