Research was conducted at Colby and Tribune, KS, from 2018–2020 to evaluate irrigation strategies, hybrid maturity, seeding rate on corn production. Irrigation strategies were a combination of frequency/timing (weekly or bi-weekly) applied pre- post-silking, amounts (1 1.5 inch/week). Hybrid maturities 108- 111-day hybrids planted 25,000 30,000 seeds/a. Average ranged 7.33 12.50 in. 8.41 13.44 ...

Agronomic characteristics of genetically modified (GM) MON 89034 × TC1507 × NK603 × DAS-40278-9 (PowerCore™ Enlist™), MON 89034 × TC1507 × NK603 (PowerCore™), and DAS-40278-9 (Enlist™) corn, a non-GM near-isogenic hybrid, and 2 commercial non-GM hybrids were assessed in a field study to determine if the agronomic performance of the GM corn hybrids is equivalent to that of non-transgenic hybrid ...

dehghan (ksc 400) is an early-medium maturity grain maize hybrid that has been developed from a cross between two inbred lines (ke72012/12×k1263/1). this cross was carried out in 1997, for the first time. the characteristics of dehghan hybrid were studied in different trials (preliminary, semi final, final and on farm trials) in several locations during 1997 to 2005. the mean grain yield of the...

There is an increased awareness of the roles that enterprise architecture (EA) and enterprise systems (ES) play in today’s organizations. EA and ES usage maturity models are used to assess how well companies are capable of deploying these two concepts while striving to achieve strategic corporate goals. The existence of various architecture and ES usage models raises questions about how they bo...

This research was conducted to determine the effect of corn genetics and cutting height on the composition and nutritive characteristics of corn silage. An in situ study involving eight commercially available corn hybrids indicated main effects and interactions (P < 0.01) of hybrid and cutting height on NDF, ADF, and starch content and on in situ DM and NDF degradablility. Four ruminally cannul...

Five in situ trials with whole-plant corn silage (WPCS) were conducted in two ruminallycannulated Holstein cows to determine 24-h ruminal disappearance of dry matter (DM), starch, and neutral detergent ®ber (NDF). In Trial 1, the effect of maturity of WPCS on ruminal nutrient disappearance was evaluated. Treatments were early dent (ED), 1/4 milk-line (1/4 ML), 2/3 milkline (2/3 ML), and black-l...

in order to find the most appropriate planting patter and cultivar of grain corn, an experiment was conducted in agriculture research station of jiroft and kahnooj, iran for two years in 2007 and 2008 as a split-plot experiment based on a randomized complete blocks design with three replications. the main plot was planting patter at four levels of normal planting (single-row on one furrow), dou...

fajr (ksc 260) is an early maturity grain maize hybrid that has been developed from a cross between two inbred lines (k1264/5-1×k615/1). this cross was carried out in 1998, for the first time. several characteristics of fajr hybrid were studied in different trials (preliminary, semi final, final and on-farm trails) over several locations during 1998 to 2005. the mean grain yield of the hybrid o...

The objective of this paper is to provide an overview of the HybridMaize software (www.hybridmaize.unl.edu, verified 28 Feb. 2006), with emphasis on its practical applications based on our own experience and feedback from users. The Hybrid-Maize model is a computer program that simulates the growth and yield of a corn crop (Zea mays L.) under nonlimiting or water-limited (rainfed or irrigated) ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of ensiling time and exogenous protease addition on soluble CP (% of CP), ammonia-N (% of N), and ruminal in vitro starch digestibility (ivSD) of whole-plant corn silage (WPCS) from 3 hybrids, 2 maturities, and 2 chop lengths. Samples from 3 nonisogenic hybrids [brown midrib containing the bm3 gene mutation (BM3), dual-purpose (DP), or flo...
