G-212, growing in glacial clay on a farm near 
Anita, Cass County, lowa, made 70 bushels per 
acre, the largest crop on the field in 30 years. 
RELIABLE ON THIN SOILS... 
SUPERIOR ON RICH ONES 
ADAPTATION: Full season maturity for 
south half of Region 3. Medium to full 
season for Region 4, with a fine yield 
record in Region 5. Has a highly satisfactory farm record on 
medium to fow fertility levels as well as on good land. 

One of the Oldest But Still a Leader: Few hybrids have 
enjoyed as many years of usefulness as G-212. Its ability to 
yield abundantly under a wide range of soil, moisture and 
weather conditions keeps this hybrid continually popular 
from the Atlantic to the Rocky Mountains. While G-212 
shows up well on average land, it is always a favorite with 
hill farmers. Colorado corn growers report that G-212 is 
outstanding when grown under irrigation. Thousands of corn 
producers have grown G-212 every year since 1937. 
And It Can Take a Lot of Punishment, Too: G-212 carries 
its ears at medium height, has extra short shanks which 
make it ideal for mechanical pickers. Its rather heavy leaves 
are dark green, making it an attractive, heavy yielding silage 
corn in Colorado and the Northern Corn Belt. These features 
are your assurance of a profitable corn crop when you plant 
G-212. Glen Denny, Delta, Iowa, writes: ‘‘I am well pleased 
with my G-212. It stayed green and made a good crop in 
spite of drouth during July and August.”
