How A Corn Plant Grows - Summary
The amount of grain produced by the corn factory will depend upon the rate and length of time of dry matter accumulation. Take advantage of these implications by using these pointers to produce high yields:
- Fertilize according to soil tests for the production level you want.
- Select the hybrid best suited to your farm operation.
- Plant early at the correct population and spacing (density).
- Eliminate competition from weeds, diseases and insects.
- Carry out all other cultural practices to maximize the rate and length of time of dry matter accumulation in the grain.
