Heavier corn planting boosts Ohio yields say agronomist
Dr. G W Volk of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station says average fertility land loses potential yields with light seeding. He cites trials at Vickery substation showing 11 000 to 18 000 plants per acre can yield 95 to 123 bushels per acre, with best results near 17 000 to 18 000 plants in 42 inch rows and cautions about lodging and germination.
