- Extremely good root and stalk strength
- Medium length ears that are somewhat girthy, averaging 16 kernel rows with excellent test weights
- Medium height plants with good ear placement
- Good fall intactness
- Good husk cover with fairly rapid drydown
- Excellent grain quality and heavy test weights
- Tolerates high nitrogen and well manured fields
- Great choice for ear picking
- Works well following sugar beets
