Gibberella Ear Rot
Gibberella ear rot can be most readily identified by the red or pink color of the mold starting at ear tip. The mold may be very pale in some cases, causing it to be confused with other ear rots. Get more ID and management tips for this ear rot.
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 Leafhopper
The corn leafhopper (Dalbulus maidis) is one of the most important pests of corn in Latin America and the Caribbean. The current range of the corn leafhopper in the Americas extends from the Southern U.S. to temperate parts of Argentina.
Corn Response to Reduced Nitrogen Environments in a 17-Year Study
Pioneer conducted a 17-year study to examine the effects of reduced nitrogen environments over multiple years in the same location, including both crop rotation to soybeans and corn grown continuously.
Effects of Sosdia® Stress Abiotic Stress Mitigator on Corn Yield
A study was conducted in 2023 to evaluate the impact of Sosdia® Stress abiotic stress mitigator on corn yield. Treatment with Sosdia Stress significantly increased corn yield, by an average of 1.3 bu/acre. Find out more.
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.
Gray Leaf Spot of Corn
Gray leaf spot (GLS) is a common fungal disease in the United States caused by the pathogen Cercospora zeae-maydis in corn. Gray leaf spot lesions on corn leaves hinder photosynthetic activity, reducing carbohydrates allocated towards grain fill. Find out about symptoms and management.
Corn Biomass Allocation and Nitrogen Uptake: Insights from 13 Years of Field Research
As corn yield potential continues to increase, it is important that management practices keep pace with the changes, ensuring that yield potential is fully realized. Crops producing more grain also produce more non-harvestable biomass, both of which require more nutrient uptake from the soil.
Field Performance of Vorceed® Enlist® Corn Rootworm Traits: 2020-2023
Field experiments were conducted in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 to evaluate efficacy of the corn rootworm traits in Qrome corn and Vorceed Enlist corn for reducing root feeding and protecting corn yield. Find out more.
Corn Rootworm
This corn rootworm insect management guide provides tips on how to differentiate the different types of corn rootworms and offers management options.
