Waxy corn differs from conventional corn in its starch composition. Waxy corn contains almost 100% of amylopectin. The consumption of waxy corn is very different, as a food additive, for paper, textiles and medicine production. In its cultivation, care must be taken with the isolation distance, and it should be born in mind that waxy maize has a slower water loss. During drying, the air temperature should not exceed 70°C and the crop 60°C.
With two years of experience in waxy corn, we can offer a complete contract of production for Waxy Corn with our industrial partner in Austria.
We guarantee to buy back wet waxy corn at a higher price than the conventional corn market.
Waxy corn must be harvested and managed before or after classic corn for keeping the purity of amylopectin. In our portfolio we propose several varieties from international breeders (Pioneer, Dekalb and Lidea) with earliness between 310 and 390 FAO. However, we can provide you with other late or early variety.
