The
most notable features of ATS, our current and well-known
super sweet corn hybrid, are the strength of its stalks, which
are short in length, and its deep root structure, which prevents
the stalks from bending and falling easily. It is highly resistant
to insects and is highly productive. Thick coverage protects
the cob from infestation.

ATS
has been tested and certified as Non-genetically modified organisms
(NON-GMO) as well.
