In the middle of a Corn campaign This seems very encouraging, as early transplants have already been performed and late transplants are coming. It is necessary to plan well all variables, while following recommendations.
He added: “We recommend closely monitoring the emergence of weeds and controlling them to reach clean areas for planting and supervising the rainfall record from now until December.” “In general, producers who plan to plant late do not aim for production ceilings, but rather aim for hybrids that have good production stability in environments between 5,000-9,000 kg/ha and with this level of accumulated water (good level in recent months) in the plots plus some nutrition from November/December rainfall, they can cover a large part of the initial development of the crop.” Guillermo Alo, NK Semillas Extension Agent for the Coastal Region.
According to him, “The good news for producers is that there is no Dalbulus maydisKnown as the corn leafhopper.”
“This allows, in areas such as central and northern Cordoba and Santa Fe, to continue the corn rotation, which is essential to not break the cycles and maintain soil health,” he added. For these methods, NK 855 VIPTERA3 and NK 842 VIPTERA3 are recommended. Distinctive in late planting dates and very good performance in Spiroplasma Major foliar diseases in late cultivation such as blight.
Meanwhile, the NK 825 VIPTERA3 CL has added CL weed control technology. For early and late planting, it “delivers outstanding performance across a full range of environmental indicators against major competitors,” the company added. For late planting it provides stability and adaptability as well as excellent cracking behaviour.
The company indicated that producers are looking for the versatility of NK 842 VIPTERA3, which in late planting dates is a substance. “Maintains performance in challenging environments and is able to navigate stressful events in constrained environments.”
“NK’s technical team contributes as a campaign strategy to create product mixes in specific environments with different hybrids and diverse cycles. For example, NK 835 VIPTERA3 is positioned as a hybrid with high yield potential with the shortest portfolio cycle, excellent agronomy and adapted to all sowing dates. Together with NK 855 VIPTERA3 it adds performance diversity to all environments and is a great choice for late cultivation since it is adaptable to… Low density environments.
He added that these hybrids were part of experiments conducted by the Ojos del Salado Agricultural Network in western Buenos Aires at an early planting date. The first achieved 11,356 kg/ha of average production in the General Villegas trial and the second achieved 10,529 kg/ha of average production in Trenc Lauquin.
