Sugar-Enhanced Sweet Corn Cultivar Evaluation For Northern Indiana, 2007, Elizabeth T. Maynard Jan 2008

Sugar-Enhanced Sweet Corn Cultivar Evaluation For Northern Indiana, 2007, Elizabeth T. Maynard

Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports

"The Indiana Agricultural Statistics Service reported sweet corn for fresh market sales was harvested from 5,200 acres in Indiana in 2006 and had a total value of $7.6 million. Sweet corn fields are located throughout the state. In northern Indiana, bicolor corn is most commonly grown. Varieties with improved eating quality are of interest to both producers and consumers. Producers are also interested in yield, ear size, appearance, and agronomic characteristics. This paper reports on 11 sugar enhanced and synergistic sweet corn cultivars that were evaluated at the Pinney-Purdue Agricultural Center in Wanatah, Indiana."


Sweet Corn Population Effects On Yield And Ear Quality, 2007, Elizabeth T. Maynard Jan 2008

Sweet Corn Population Effects On Yield And Ear Quality, 2007, Elizabeth T. Maynard

Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports

"Current recommendations for fresh market sweet corn suggest row spacing of 30 to 40 inches and in-row spacing of 8 to 10 inches for early varieties and 9 to 12 inches for late varieties. This corresponds to populations from 13,068 to 26,136 plants per acre. Variety trials at Pinney-Purdue Agricultural Center have been planted at row spacings of 30 or 36 inches and populations of 20,328 plants per acre. Some cultivars may perform well at higher populations. This trial was conducted to evaluate yield and ear characteristics of two cultivars at populations up to 50% higher than normally used in …
