P7631<br />
» Intermediate Maturity » Maturity Class 5<br />
» Primary End Use: Forage<br />
P7631 is an intermediate maturity hybrid for growing in the open on favourable locations in the south of England in the<br />
open and for growing under film on most locations across the UK & Ireland. P7631 produces high starch content silage<br />
and has shown noticeable resistance to leaf diseases including Eyesepot (Aureobasidium zeae)<br />
Hybrid Characteristics<br />
• Large stature hybrid<br />
• High starch content especially<br />
when grown under film<br />
• Good resistance to Eyespot<br />
(Aureobasidium zeae)<br />
Grown In The Open<br />
• P7631 can be grown on<br />
favourable locations in the south<br />
of England<br />
Grown Using The Samco System<br />
• On a wide range of favourable<br />
sites in South and North<br />
England<br />
• On good sites in southern and<br />
