Five precautions for using herbicides in summer corn fields
The summer corn growing season coincides with high temperature and high humidity, and weeds in the field grow rapidly. In addition, with more rainfall, manual and mechanical weed control is relatively difficult and labor-intensive, so chemical weed control in corn fields is increasingly accepted and widely used by farmers. There are many types of corn herbicides with high application technical requirements

Key Field Management Techniques for the Late Growth Stage of Corn
1 Remove field weeds and diseased or weak plants. With the widespread adoption of mechanized wheat harvesting, the shading of wheat straw and stubble reduces the control effect of herbicides, and weeds left in wheat fields also increase the difficulty of weed control. For plots where chemical weed control is ineffective and field weeds are abundant, timely

Sharing Experience on Increasing Corn Yield Through Properly Delayed Harvest
The technique of increasing corn yield through late harvest is, on the premise of not affecting the timely sowing of wheat, to fully extend the corn grain-filling period, increase grain weight, raise corn yield, and improve corn varieties. At the same time, if the land must be cleared for the next crop and early harvest is necessary, the stalks can be harvested together with the ears and placed

What are the technical measures for managing summer corn during the flowering and grain-filling stage?
The main goal at this stage is to maintain roots and protect leaves, prevent premature senescence and excessive vegetative growth, extend the functional period of green leaves, prevent grain abortion, and improve seed-setting rate and grain weight. First, apply grain fertilizer skillfully: so-called skillful application should be determined by the appearance of plants in the field. In fields where ear fertilizer is sufficient, plants look good, leaf color

Key Field Management Techniques for Corn at the Big Trumpet Stage
The big trumpet stage is a critical period for corn growth and development, when both reproductive growth and vegetative growth are vigorous. At the same time, this stage is also a period of high incidence of corn pests and diseases. Field management at this stage should emphasize the "five preventions": 1. Preventing fertilizer deficiency. The big trumpet stage is the peak period of fertilizer demand,

What to Do When Summer Corn Grows "Cow-Tail Seedlings"
Recently, quite a few farmers brought corn to our station to ask about it. In their corn fields, some corn seedlings had twisted and deformed central leaves that could not unfold, and in severe cases they took on the shape of a large whip, with the tassel unable to emerge normally. Even when ear shoots could form, the kernels were not plump. This phenomenon has also occurred in previous years.
