Plant corn right from Missouri Station
Good seed corn planted in a thoroughly prepared seed bed leads to a big crop. Test seed and prep seed bed, choose drill or planter plate so kernels drop evenly. Do not mix very different kernel sizes and discard nubs and butts for best results. Use a corn grader for better outcomes.
