Cold Stress Effects on Corn Emergence
Corn is a warm season crop. Germination and emergence are optimal when soil temperatures are approximately 85-90ºF (29-32ºC). Review recommendations and management strategies for planting corn under less than ideal seasonal temperatures.
Corn Plant Population Research –– Water-Limited Sites
Get results from a study on corn plant populations in drought environments. The study uses multi-locations and multi-year results to identify the best potential planting rate specific to their corn hybrid, location and management practice.
Corn Seeding Rate Considerations
Hybrid improvements in stress tolerance have led to higher populations and increased yield potential over the years. Review how Pioneer scientists evaluate corn population responses in research trials across the North American Corn Belt.
Corn Plant Population Research
The Pioneer Planting Rate Estimator is an online tool that allows corn growers to generate estimated optimum seeding rates for Pioneer® brand corn products based on data from Corteva Agriscience research trials.
Delayed Soybean Planting Considerations
Review management considerations that can help maximize soybean yield with late planting.
Soybean Planting Date & Varietal Maturity Interact to Determine Yield
Should soybean varietal maturity selections change based on soybean planting dates? Get results from 2-years of on-farm studies.
Rethinking Corn Silage Planting Options
BMR silage genetics consistently offer higher NDF digestibility compared to standard (non-BMR) silage hybrids but this advantage currently comes at the cost of poorer agronomics and upwards of a 15-20% yield reduction. Find out about managing different considerations.
Corn Rotations in Northern Latitudes: How to Get a Fast Start
With the shorter growing seasons of Northern latitudes, getting a corn crop off to a strong, fast start is critical to maximize yields. Use these rotational and management tips to help you succeed.
How Planting Depth and Soil Texture Affect Corn Emergence
This three-year study found that planting corn deeper can lead to better corn emergence results, no matter the soil texture.
Putting Variable-Rate Seeding to Work on Your Farm
Research has documented the value of varying corn seeding rate based on field productivity, as growers can maximize their seed input value.
