Agriculture Canada's Morden Research Station tested how late frosts and hail affect corn yields. Early planting risks frost damage but boosts potential yield. In May 17 plantings, frost cuts reduced yield to 78 percent and 47 percent of control. Leaf removal at full silk stage cut yields up to 28 percent, with lesser losses as ears matured.
Studies over three years show hail damage reduces yield sharply at full silk stage and less so later. Continuous corn improves vigor with no disease spike, while barley followings yield better than summerfallow. A separate note warns drivers to wait for eyes to adjust to darkness.
Eleven year old Crystal Koroscil of Oakbank is Manitoba's Easter Seal Tammy for 1978.
