LIKEit is a new very early forage maize. The variety has, although very early, a realtively long growth habit and a nice cob that leads to high starch content. LIKEit is a hybrid that was developed especially for cooler regions. The flint maize showed one of the best early vigors in the British NL trials and can be grown on every site.
