- Later-maturing hybrids dominated this plot even planted on May 8th. If you were at our plot day we showed you some of the benefits of the new drought tolerant corn, P0062. It's the first AquaMax corn for our area which means it is one of the coming drought-toerant corns. We're finding that it can also yield big even when there isn't much for drought.
