Show Notes

When planting season rolls around, your seed choice might seem like a small detail, but it could be your biggest decision.

In this episode, we dig deep into maize hybrid selection with Reggie Mchunu, key accounts manager at Pannar. He breaks down why not all hybrids are created equal and how factors like yield potential, disease resistance, standability, and adaptability can determine your farm’s success, or struggle.


Reggie shares practical advice on building a hybrid package, how to match hybrids to seasonal forecasts, and more.
