RECOMMENDED HYBRIDS

The lists of recommended corn hybrids shown on the prevIous pages

Are

based

on

results

of records accumulated

from several seasons of

testing. Th~se are the hybrids t~t

have consistently

In

yield

and'that possess other desirable qualities.

New

hybrIdS

are qdded to the

standard

(a

group

of

hybrids of known

performance)

;n

yield

and erect pJ~nts for two years at two or

more

locations or three

years

at one

location.

other agronomic, pQthologic and entomofogic

character-isties must be reasonably satisfactory

for

the

area.

Hybrids may be removed

from

the lists w~n shown to be InferIor to the standard or when seed supplies are no longer of Importance in the

seed trad9.

PURPOSE OF CORN VAR 'Ery TESTS

19S5

This report presents the data of the North Carolina Official Corn

Variety Tests for

the

1955 season.

The objectrve of these tests is to obtain performance Information

on cO~9rcially avail~ble hybrids and

varieties and

to evqluate newer

ones that may have possibilities of equaling or excelling those now In

general production.

There are

In commercial ch~nn.ls 8

large

nuMber of corn hybrids.

These differ in yIeld, .arllness of maturIty, disease susceptibility, lodging

or

storm resistance, ease, of meChanIcal harvesting, grain quell

tv,

susceptibility to stored grafn Insects, and

many

other characterl.tlcs. Those

straIns

that are

outstandIng In one

or

more

characteristic

may

be

Inferior

(5)

-fn others. Some entries may possess many excellent characterfstics and yet

may perform very poorly due to a sIngle inf~rlor characteristic.

Some hybrids may perform very well In one or more areas or regions and

perform very poorly in others.

In order for the producer of corn to choose hybrids that are most

Ilkely to produce high yield and superior quality in a glven area, he needs a historical record of yielding ability and other attributes associated

with yield.

The crop variety testing program attempts to obtain such records an~·

to provide a source of unbia~ed and dependable information which can be

used as a basis for deciding which hybrids are most likely to excell under

generally prevai ling conditIons.

tv'ore than 100 hybrids and varieties were tested during the 1955 growing season.

WHO CAN' ENT:'::R HYBRIDS AND VARIETIES

---_-._--Any individual or firm may make application for having hybrids tested,

and

Tn

addition the Crop Variety Testing Agency may add entries about which

further information is desired.

Early in February each year rules governing the tests for the ensuIng

year are dlstributed to al I previous participants, to those who make

Inquiry and to af J County Agents.

TEST LOCAT IONS

Eight locations to represent different climatic and sol I conditions were chosen and twelve separate tests were conducted, eight that Included

full season corns and four that included short season, early maturing

corns. The locations are shown on a map of the state.

(6)

-The testing agency recognizes the cooperative spIrit and civIc

mInded service rendered by the farmers who have furnfshed, prepared,

cultivated the land and aided in harvestIng these crops.

The County Agents and their assistants have contributed to the

success of these tests by aiding in locatIng, observing and holding field

meetings as well as uti Jlzing the information.

The testing agency recognizes the help rendered by the Veterans

Classes in harvesting these tests. The contribution of SCientifIc Afde,

EdwIn Lo Jones, who assIsted in planting, in harvesting, col lectJng of

the data and compllfng the records Is also recognized.

The tests were conducted on private farms and branch experiment

stations as follows:

MANAGEMENT OF TEST FIELDS

Cultural practices, such as soT J preparation, date of planting,

ferti frzation at planting, time of application and amount of nitrogen

were in accord with good farm.practice and were the same for all entries.

Planting, thinning and harvesting were directly supervised by personnel of North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station.

(8)

SEASONAL CONDITIONS

The

1955

season was favorable for growth and development of the corn crop but the three hurricanes of August and September were very

damagingo Due to these severe storms, lodging was very heavy and the

percent of damaged corn was very hIgh.

The damage and lodgIng was so excessive In the Tyrrell County

tests that the record would have been uselessJ therefore these tests

were not harvested.

Stands were inferior in the Piedmont and Mountain te~ts and it was

necessary to omit a few plots from the records.

The Coastal Plain tes~s were harvested relatively earlyo Therefore,

the insect Infestation of ear corn was less than if the corn had stood in the field unti I (ate O:tober cr November as is usually the caseo

PERFORMANCE RECORDS

Yield records of the ~935 corn tests are given for ten tests. The

three hurricanes of August and September rendered the two tests in

Tyrrell County useless?

Asingle year's record at a given location may not portray the true

performance of a hybrid or variety over a wide range of seasonal conditions.

In Area III_J Piedmont and Area IV, Southern Coastal Plain, records of two

tests in each have been averagede The yield records of commercially

available hybrids that have been tested In an area for three consecutive

years are summarized. longer records of performance are more dependable

and should be utI li;ed when available instead of a single year.

Plant character measurements on the hybrids and varieties tested are

Included with the one year yield data.

-YIELDS

Bushels of corn harvested ~er acre is the most important

considera-tfon in choosing a hybrid or varJety. However, other characteristics that contribute to·yield and quality may be almost as important as yield itself. Such characteristics as d'sease resistance, lodging resistance,

height of ears, husk cover, grain quality, stored grain insect susceptl-bi fity should always be kept clearly in mind.

GRAIN QUALITY

Grain quality is an indicator of market grade and takes Into

con-sideration the percentage of kernels damaged by insects and decay

organ-isms and general appearance of the ears. Since the percentage of damaged kernels is one of the factors that determines market grade, al I entries

are scored for decay or rot damage.

INSECT DAMAGE

Weevi Is and other stored grain insects often cause damage to the kernefs on the ears of corn in the fields before it is harvested. Some

hybrids are damaged more than others depending on how wei I the ears are covered with shuck, earliness of maturity and hardness or starchiness of

the kernels.

The tests were all harvested relatively early, therefore the stored

grain insect damage was so smaI , that differences could not be

distfn-gufshed.

ROTS OR DECAY DAMAGE

Likewise, some hybrids are more susceptible to damage by decay or

rot oraan;sms than others. Hybrids with exposed ear tips, with loose

~

shucks that permit water to enter and soak the buts of the ears,

weak

(10)

stalks that 'cause' the ears to fal I to the' sol I to absorb moisture, al r

contribute to decay damage.

The ears are scored for rots as follows:

MOfSTURE IN GRAIN

Moisture Tn the grain is another' factor that determines market grade.

15.5%

moisture is the maximum perm;ssabJe in grade Noo 2 corn, therefore,

samples from aJ I entries of each test are tested for moisture and adjusted

In order that yield comparisons are made at the same moisture content,

15.5%.

' . (

Moisture content is sometimes used ro lndlce re e'aPiliness or maturity

; date. Usua lly the earlier the matur'ity of the corn fhe lower the moisture

content. A high percentage of moisture may also indicate a larger number of the ears have fallen to the ground and have absorbed moisture.

EARS

PER

100 STALKS

The number of ears per 100 stalks is a measure of prolIficacy and

:"ind;cates whether an entry tends to be a single ear or a prolific type.

EAR HEIGHT

The height of ears from the ground may influence ease or difficulty

of mechanical harvesting as well as hand picking. The percentage of plants

lodged may be increased by high ear placement.

(11)

-LODGING

Lodging is a term used to describe stalks that are broken, feanlng

or fallen to the ground.

AI ( plants brol<en below the ear or leaning more than

45°5

from the

perpendicular are considered lodged.

~ORT SEASON Vs. FULL SEASON CORNS

Short season corns are early maturi.ng and are usually sufficiently

dry to be harvested and marketed

Tn

late August and September~ These

supply an early (Auge and Sept.) market demand and the production of

t~is type of corn has been 1lm!ted primari Iy to the Northeastern Counties,

however. some ;s being g~own in other Coastal Plain Arease These short

season corns ere grown for two specific purposes. (I) early market and (2) hogging off~ The keeping qualities of these short season hybrids are

usuql'y inferior, and unless the grower exercises extra precautions the

quality and feed value ;s ::KeJy to deter~orate rapldiy from insect damage.

Short season corns are usually less suitable for storing on the farm

because of this raprd detericratione

For general farm storing and feeding full season corns are more

Irkely to preserve their quality and usually are damaged less by 'nsects.

Fur I season corns require from three weeks to one month longer to reach

maturity and to become sUfficrently dry to harvest and store but In most

of the state are usually dry enough to be harvested In early October.

Corns considered ful' season in the Coastal Plain may not mature In

Area I, Northern Mountains, therefore, only hybrids adapted for the hIgher

elevations should be grown.
