dc.description | The author discusses early maturing corn to be used for both silage and for grain. Corn grown for grain must be early enough to mature in a normal growing season, yield satisfactorily, resist lodging and have ears high enough on the plant to permit efficient harvesting with a mechanical picker. Early maturing hybrids permit harvesting the crop early, so the land can be prepared for next year's use. Corn used for silage should produce well glazed or dented ears, since the ears make up a high proportion of the feed value in silage. The author makes recommendations on producing corn which meets desired criteria. A list of best suited corn varieties for each North Dakota's climate zones was presented. | |
