A bulletin from Nangae State Renenatural College proposes testing seed corn by planting two or three rows of a different variety in the field and removing tassels early so the ears receive pollen from the rest of the field. Seed from these rows would be replanted next year, with claims of yields up to ten bushels per acre. Prof Clothier notes about 15 Manhattan farmers will join, urging broader trials across the corn belt with minimal extra labor.
