Corn Production

Plant population research at ISU (2007)

Plant populations continue to increase an average of 400 plants per acre per year. What is the best recommendation for producers today considering this? Numerous hybrids have been included at seeding rates of 30,000 to 45,000 seeds per acre.

The location of plant population research trials are denoted by a star; multiple trials exist at some locations.

Seed for this research project was supplied by Monsanto and Mycogen Hybrids.
