1995 South Dakota Corn Performance Trials, R. G. Hall Nov 1995

1995 South Dakota Corn Performance Trials, R. G. Hall

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars

The relative performance of com hybrids grown under similar environmental conditions in 1995 is evaluated in this report. Information in the tables includes both 1995 and 1994-95 grain yields in bushels per acre (bu/acre); and 1994 test weight, moisture percentages of shelled com at harvest, final plant populations per acre, and stalk lodging percentages. The test trials reported in this publication were conducted by the Plant Science Department Crop Performance Testing Program, Agricultural Experiment Station.


Number Of Calendar Days And Gdds Needed By Corn To Mature At Given Growth Stages, Robert Hall Sep 1995

Number Of Calendar Days And Gdds Needed By Corn To Mature At Given Growth Stages, Robert Hall

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

The number of calendar days and growing degree days needed for corn to mature form one growth stage to another are indicated in Table 1 (next page). Use caution when applying table values to specific growing conditions since they are approximations and may vary slightly according to environment and corn hybrid.

Effects Of Wheat Middlings On Utilization Of Mature Prairie Hay By Steers, J. S. Heldt, R. J. Pruitt Jan 1995

Effects Of Wheat Middlings On Utilization Of Mature Prairie Hay By Steers, J. S. Heldt, R. J. Pruitt

South Dakota Beef Report, 1995

A digestibility trial measuring intake, digestibility, ruminal nutrient disappearance, and ruminal pH was conducted to determine the effects of wheat middlings on utilization of mature prairie hay. Treatments included supplements used in a previous winter grazing trial at the SDSU Cottonwood Research Station that were balanced to provide the following amounts of crude protein (Ib) and metabolizable energy (Mcal) per cow daily: 1) soybean meal .75 and 2.40, 2) low wheat middlings .75 and 4.76, 3) corn-soybean meal 1.50 and 9.40, and 4) high wheat middlings 1.50 and 9.40. These supplements were fed to the steers in proportional amounts based …

South Dakota Performance Ram Testing Program Final Reports: 1993-94 And 1994-95, Jeff Held

South Dakota Sheep Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1995

The South Dakota Performance Ram Testing program was established primarily to identify differences in wool traits for rams managed under the same environmental conditions and plane of nutrition. Secondly, to measure postweaning growth rate as indicated by weight gain. An added feature is evaluation of animal carcass merit using real-time ultrasound technology.
