Meet BMR hybrids that are the product of Corteva Agriscience’s extensive research and testing network. They have earned the highest standard for digestibility and milk production and demonstrate outstanding performance in yield, disease resistance and agronomics. With 6-8 points higher NDFD30 compared to non-BMR checks and one ton per acre higher silage yield potential compared to BMR hybrids sold today1,3.
Bovalta™ BMR Corn Silage Products
Taking BMR to a new level of silage performance, agronomics and profit.
Three Key Differences with Bovalta™ BMR
1. Highest standard for digestibility & milk production1,2
- 6-8 points higher NDFD30 compared to non-BMR checks
- Highly digestible, high energy corn silage can lead to:
- Lower dietary undigestible fiber (uNDF240) allowing for higher corn silage inclusion levels
- Lower supplemental feed costs
- Improved dry matter intake
- Potential for higher milk yields
2. Higher standard for yield, disease resistance & agronomics3,4
- Tested in a range of environmental conditions, hybrids must meet outstanding criteria for:
- Yield/tonnage
- Bovalta BMR hybrids are selected as the best-of-the-best for tonnage
- One ton per acre higher silage yield potential compared to BMR hybrids sold today
- Agronomics
- Bovalta BMR hybrids have improved leaf disease protection for better yield potential
- Selected for improved standability and roots
- Yield/tonnage
3. Higher standard for on-farm business impact.
- Enhanced revenue and profit potential
- Greater milk yield potential - more revenue
- High fiber digestibility - greater forage intake potential
- Additional tonnage potential - lower input costs
The Leader in BMR
Take your farm to the next level with Bovalta™ BMR hybrids. Leveraging one of the largest corn genetics and breeding programs in the world, only the best hybrids make the cut before being intensively evaluated to see if they earn the Bovalta BMR designation to deliver you the highest standard of milk production.
