Research in northern VT has suggested that hybrid, as opposed to just day length, is important in determining corn yield.\u00a0 Shorter season corn hybrids were planted at multiple sites to demonstrate which of them perform as well as longer season hybrids.\u00a0 The objective is to find optimum day length to balance yield, performance on local soils, and have time in the fall for successful cover crop seeding and establishment.<\/p>\n

After lunch there will be the opportunity to look at a field that was no-tilled after first cut hay and check out the farm’s new no-till closing wheels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
