S Illinois		They are sort of totally opposites as to how to manage and where they will shine. 6572 is better on the tougher acre and will handle stress more. It’s less likely to need fungicide and likes warmer temps at emergence. Will likely be the heaviest TW corn you have so just going by kernel count or even ear size will be deceiving. Seems to have good ear flex so don’t need 32k+ population. If shooting for that 225 plus in good black dirt, there are better and even more expensive options but 6572 can really shine in that 175-225 range and has been one of the highest volume hybrids in S IL for the last few years.

Edit: Drydown isn’t the best due to kernel density makeup, plant stay green. Unless getting past Memorial Day wouldn’t be scared of it though. Also seems to do better with late nitrogen.
