This is a field of Croplan 9009 RH planted on 5-16-11. 6 1/2" spacing and 30" rows. Harvest date 9-9-11. Fields are as free from weeds as any I have seen this season.Steve says he chopped some N91J1 this morning and the 9009 is producing what appears to be more tonnage and a better quality product. The 91 was beginning to come down with blight.
He is measuring trucks per field and will have tonnage per acre information.
The corn tested 76% dry matter as it was being chopped.
This field of corn tested 194 bushels as calculated by the number of kernels around the ear and number of kernels along the length based on the plant population.
It tested 311 bushels wet based on shelled weight.
They grew some 9009RH beside the CO-OP store and it tested 202 bushels based on the counting kernels method and 321 bushels based on weight.
