• Climate tolerance:  Corn thrives in a variety of climatic conditions. Thanks to genetic innovation, it can also adapt to water-limited conditions or extreme heat, enabling it to withstand the uncertainties of the weather.
• Sowing flexibility: With a wider seeding window compared to spring cereals, and a wide range of earliness, corn allows a rapid adaptation to changing weather conditions.
• Stable yields: Lidea corn varieties offer high and stable yields, ensuring an abundant and profitable harvest like LID1015C, LID2020C, LID2210C, MYLADY.
• Sustained demand: Maize is a crop with a constant demand in the market, providing solid commercial opportunities for farmers due to anattractive market price.
• Soil health and rotation benefits : By including corn in their rotation, farmers can better manage insect, disease and weed pressure. Growing corn will this allows a lot of dry matter (crop residues) to be incorporated into the soil, which will raise the level of organic matter in the long term.
