Subject: RE: whats the next step in taking my corn yields



central - east central Minnesota -

iowacorn - 3/15/2013 09:24 up? Currently have about 80acres that are all VH in P&k due to manure history. Have been yielding in the 200-220 on normal years. What is the next step in increasing yields? I Have high fertility, try to push the population with the right hybrids, using a fungicide/insecticide at VT. I would just like to know what everone is doing to get to the next yield level. Seems like there is 100's of products that all give 5-7bu increases. Would like to try some different things on part of the farm this year. Long time reader and finally first post, located in eastern iowa


You did not mention N and application of N and rates ~
If you have a healthy, active, balanced - alive soil health, I'd consider N rates and N timeing applications . . . . . .
I have no relevent experence, just my opinion and something I'm considering. As I've put all my N down at once and I want to see if feeding N a few times will offer a break in the trend line yeild . . ..  .
