Processor Preferred® HFC hybrids are selected for their strong agronomic characteristics and high ethanol yield. These hybrids have delivered proven performance across the Corn Belt. Their traits and genetics maximize yield potential and have higher levels of fermentable starch, which can increase ethanol production by 2 percent to 4 percent.
Dry mill ethanol plants now want high fermentable corn (HFC) to obtain the highest possible ethanol yields for greater profitability. Corn growers can participate in this market by growing Processor Preferred® HFC hybrids.
Processor Preferred® high extractable starch (HES) hybrids can deliver higher levels of extractable starch, which allows corn wet millers to produce higher starch yields that they can turn into products, including high fructose corn syrup, corn oil, specialty starch products, commodity starches and ethanol.
