P7655 is suitable for favourable locations. Over three years and 21 locations, it has given a very high dry matter yield of 113% of the Control hybrid, with a 35.9% starch content in PACTS favourable sites.
Launched in 2024, P7655 is a large stature flint dent grain textured hybrid, which has given very high starch and dry matter yields over 21 locations and three years of testing on favourable open PACTS sites. It is not suitable for sowing on less favourable sites.
P7655 has given forage dry matter yields 13% higher than the Control hybrid on favourable open sites, with a starch content of 35.9%. It tested 2.6% lower dry matter content in comparison to the Control hybrid.
Once again, P7655 tops the favourable table with a gas yield of 5,673,763 litres per hectare and 337 litres per kilogram of dry matter. The later maturing hybrid DS1897B now takes second place with a total gas yield only 7,874 litres lower and 5 litres less per kilogram.
Performance highlights:
- Produced high forage dry matter and starch yields on favourable sites
- 13% dry matter yield advantage over the Control hybrid
- Suited only for favourable sites
- Large stature hybrid
- Demonstrated good lodging resistance
