The Georgia Agricultural Department explains how shredded corn stalks, stored dry to prevent fermentation, serve as high value roughage. Analysis shows fodder outperforms cottonseed hulls and nearly matches the best timothy hay, with farms using shredders reporting ready, preferred feed for horses, mules, and cattle.
The optimal corn fertilizer blends cottonseed meal 1000 lbs plus acid phosphate 1000 lbs and muriate of potash 50 lbs or 900 lbs kumit as substitute. Use 200–300 lbs per acre on poor humusless soils, at planting. Apply heavy, preferably after a prior crop, and broadcast or shallowly incorporate to boost moisture use. For oats, March sowing is late in southern Georgia. in North Georgia plant 90 Day or Burt varieties on rich soil, seed about a bushel per acre and sow and cover deeply.
The guidance explains nitrogen promotes stalk and leaf development and can delay fruiting when excessive, phosphoric acid accelerates maturity and fruit formation, and potash strengthens the stalk and lint while reducing rust when in kainit form. It emphasizes balanced nutrient use to favor well formed, well filled bolls over excessive foliage.
