Description of Burley Variety Hybrid 404LC
Hybrid 404LC, is a medium-maturing variety from Clay’s Seed Inc. It has a high yield potential similar to Hybrid 403LC, but it also has black root rot resistance, making it more suitable than Hybrid 403LC for second-year tobacco or in rotation behind legume crops. Hybrid 404LC does not have black shank resistance or virus complex resistance, so it should only be grown in fields that are known to be free of black shank. It appears to have generally good quality.
