All agronomic characteristics and ratings may vary with growing conditions and environment. Ratings are approximate and should not be considered as absolute. Ratings on new hybrids are based on limited data and may change as more data are colle cted. Extreme conditions may adversely affect hybrid performance. The relative maturity of one hybrid to another remains reasonably constant; however, the actual number of cale ndar days from seeding to physiological maturity varies with da te of planting, planting rate, temperature, day length, soil fertility, and other environmental factors.
