A full package of disease resistance is stacked up the way you like it making many of your control decisions a lot easier. Morning Star’s trim, clean ear and easy pick makes pulling, crating and stacking a much easier chore and provides real efficiency in handling. Morning Star sets the new standard for top performing shipping operations from the field to the table.

Morning Star is a strong producer making consistent ear size under tougher conditions or higher populations. Ear size is right and the shank is trim for a fancy pack in the crate size you  prefer. Ears hold well in the field and maintain fancy quality better than other leading varieties.
Good looking husks provide ample tip cover, have nice color, and trim flags.

Morning Star is the new standard of excellence with superior performance and manageability from the muck soils of Bellglade to the minerals of the Hudson Valley. Morning Star - the MDR star with all the qualities you demand!
