Profile
LIROYAL is new very early forage maize. This variety has, although very early, a relatively long growth habit and a nice cob that leads to high starch content.The flint maize showed one of the best early vigors in the British NL trials and can be grown on every site. LIROYAL realises very good yields in DK and NL.
