Description
Profile
Aroldo is an early-maturing maize variety bred for silage and energy (biogas) production. It combines quick juvenile development with strong stem stability and good lodging resistance despite a tall habit. The cob presents 16 kernel rows with consistent filling to the tip. Grain type is flint-dent intermediate; silage shows above-average starch content and high biogas potential. Good yields were recorded in trials in Germany, Denmark and Austria. Currently tested in Descriptive List trials.
