Seed corn improved by field selection
A State College experiment shows high yielding seed corn comes from selecting ears in the field rather than crib selections. Five years of tests indicate an average 43.3 percent yield difference between high and low yielding varieties, with fields near Raleigh producing up to 158.5 bushels from the best variety. Growers should select stalks eight to ten feet tall with two ears, stocky, broad-leaved, vigorous, since 70 percent of corn grain is starch.
