LIKEIT Your cows love it S 180 | K 180 Profile LIKEiT is a high yielding variety with excellent standing power and high disease resistance, offering all things to all growers. With a bold plant and fully enclosed cob, LIKEiT is a dependable heavy yielder for every site and hits the mark as a tri-purpose variety. Currently listed for both Favourable and Less Favourable sites from the NIAB/BSPB data, LIKEiT offers high dry matter yields and is suitable for forage, AD and grain. Although the variety has a relatively tall growth habit, it develops a wellformed cob that ensures high starch content. LIKEiT prefers cooler climates, which makes it suitable for a wide range of sites. It has rapid early vigour with huge potential as an early maturing variety. What is more, with a strong disease package that offers tolerance to fusarium and eyespot as well a strong score for lodging, growers have an ideal all‑round performer. “ Over the last 3 years LIKEiT has consistently proven to be a very versatile and robust hybrid maize variety exhibiting excellent all round, agronomic, quality and yield characteristics in all farm situations, most notably on varying sites with a range of soil conditions. The excellent standing power and disease tolerance, including eyespot and fusarium has combined with an impressively large, fully-enclosed cob making LIKEiT a firm favourite with all our growers.” Mark Davies, Green Farm Seeds Ltd., Newent, Gloucestershire.
