VN595 has some excellent characteristics such as: big and well-filled ear; the orange kernel color that is suitable with customer's taste and wildly adaptation, specially this variety adapted with East-Southern and Center High land regions of Vietnam. The potential yield of VN595 is high that can be reached 7 -11 tons per hectare.
