This book was released on 1971 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of variety, plant population, and planting date on corn silage production was studied at Hyslop Agronomy Farm, Corvallis, Oregon. The corn plants were grown under irrigation with 300 pounds per acre of 16-20-0 (N-P205-K20) and 240 pounds of urea, providing a total nitrogen application of 158 pounds per acre. The yield of total dry matter, shelled grain, silage and the chemical constituents of silage (feeding quality), date of maturity and plant height were studied. The medium season varieties gave more yield of dry matter, shelled grain and silage than the early varieties. Yields of silage and shelled grain were reduced when the varieties were planted in late May compared with the same varieties planted in late April. The yield of all varieties used in the late planting test, including Sudangrass, showed no statistically significant differences. Late planting apparently prolonged date of maturity compared with the same varieties in early planting. The yield of silage increased with increased plant population. Row spacing had a large influence o.n yield of dry matter, particularly at high population rate. The 36-inch rows treatments gave a higher yield than 24-inch rows for every variety studied. The variation in plant spacing within the row (one vs. two plants per hill) had very little effect o.n yield if any. The feeding value, on the basis of analysis for feed constituents, was not influenced by increased population rate. Yield of silage was positively correlated with time to maturity and plant height and inversely with percent grain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on early germination, one of maize germplasm most important strategies for adapting to drought-induced stress. Some genotypes have the ability to adapt by either reducing water losses or by increasing water uptake. Drought tolerance is also an adaptive strategy that enables crop plants to maintain their normal physiological processes and deliver higher economical yield despite drought stress. Several processes are involved in conferring drought tolerance in maize: the accumulation of osmolytes or antioxidants, plant growth regulators, stress proteins and water channel proteins, transcription factors and signal transduction pathways. Drought is one of the most detrimental forms of abiotic stress around the world and seriously limits the productivity of agricultural crops. Maize, one of the leading cereal crops in the world, is sensitive to drought stress. Maize harvests are affected by drought stress at different growth stages in different regions. Numerous events in the life of maize crops can be affected by drought stress: germination potential, seedling growth, seedling stand establishment, overall growth and development, pollen and silk development, anthesis silking interval, pollination, and embryo, endosperm and kernel development. Though every maize genotype has the ability to avoid or withstand drought stress, there is a concrete need to improve the level of adaptability to drought stress to address the global issue of food security. The most common biological strategies for improving drought stress resistance include screening available maize germplasm for drought tolerance, conventional breeding strategies, and marker-assisted and genomic-assisted breeding and development of transgenic maize. As a comprehensive understanding of the effects of drought stress, adaptive strategies and potential breeding tools is the prerequisite for any sound breeding plan, this brief addresses these aspects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ensiling is a technique that is used to store food, mainly vegetable crops, to feed the herd when the forage supply from the pastures is not enough to maintain the productive performance of the ruminant animals. However, silage can also be used as substrate for biogas production and other different purposes. In the past years, we have seen many advances in the knowledge about silage production utilization, and this book is a compilation and discussion of the outstanding scientific research activities concerning actually the most recent advances and technologies that have been studied about silage and future demands. It is directed to a broad public of readers - farmers, academics, students, or anyone just curious or interested in the subject.
