| Corn Hybrid
Performance Trial |
| L. Besemann and H.

|
|
|
|
|
|
| Corn for grain
commands the most irrigated acres of all crops in North Dakota. The fact that significant differences in
the accumulation of growing degree units for corn and other weather-related
issues exist across the state, it is vital that corn hybrids be tested in
specific locations and regions. It is
the goal of this trial to provide yield and other agronomic parameters for
corn growers in southeastern North Dakota.
This trial tested 64 hydrids. |
