Estimate Of
Corn Yields
Easily Made
An easy method of estimat
ing corn yields has been pre
pared by Dr. Emerson Collins,
in charge of Extension Agron
omy at State college By the use
of this method farmers can
make a study of exactly what
they are doing in corn produc
tion and why yields per acre
are not as large as they should
be.
The plan is to weigh the
shucked corn on fifty running
feet of row at about live or six
places in the field to get aver
age conditions. Then multiply j
the weight of corn for the !
fifty feet by a certain factor,
depending on the width 01 the
row, and this gives the bushels
of corn per acre.
Dr. Collins took into consider
ation the fact that field corn is
rather high in moisture as com
pared with commercial corn and
other such matters in determ
ining the " factor" to give bush
els per acre from pounds of
shucked corn per fifty feet ol
row.
Here are the factors: Multiply
the weight of shucked corn
from fifty running feet of row
by 3.16 for 42 inch rows; 2.95
for 45 inch rows; 2.76 for foui
foot rows; 2 21 for five foot
rows; and 1.84 for six foot
rows. The answer is bushels pei
acre.
Every farmer should get some
yield calculations in his corn
because he will make many val
uable discoveries. First, he will
discover that it takes many
plants per acre to produce large
yields, but if plants are increas
ed, much larger amounts of plant
food are needed. This calls for
narrower rows than usual, clos
er spacing in the drill, and
much more fertilizer per acre.
If he is growing a hybrid, he
will fijid that there are no bar
ren plants and that every plant
ioes its best. Counting ears per
fifty feet of running row and
weighing It teaches valuable
lessons. Try it.
