The variety of corn planted was Pioneer 35Y54;
Seeding rate was 28K seeds/A;
The insecticide Lorsban (chlorpyrifos) was applied at planting; Most of the time Lorsban was put on at 8 - 8.7 lbs/A;
Not sure if we put 19-17-0 on at planting to all treatments except the zero nitrogen treatment? |

Planted corn on the main site treatment 4, all relications, reps 6, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Planted Pioneer 35Y54 corn at 28,000 seeds/A (the monitor was reading 30,000 seeds/A). All the seed corn that was used for planting into trt 4 was untreated corn. In order to try and keep the standards of organic certification we ordered and planted untreated Pioneer 35Y54 seed corn. No fertilizer was applied at planting. Planting depth for the corn was 2-2.25 inches. The corn was planted in 30 inch rows. Corn was planted with the JD 7520 tractor and JD 1730 planter. The planter shaft on the JD 1730 planter broke after planting the west 1/3 of treatment 4 rep 4. There was a good chance of rain at KBS during the night so I finished planting treatment 4 rep 4 and 5 the the JD 7400 tractor and JD 7300 six row planter.

I had to replant the first 12 rows of corn on the east side of treatment 3, rep 4. During planting I must have forgot to turn on the electric motor to run the seed units because this area did not have any corn growing at all. I went in with the same setup as on May 7, 2005 and replanted the area of the first 12 rows on the very far east side of trt 3 rep 4.
(May 7 Setup: Planted corn on the main site treatment 3, relications, reps 5, 4, and 3. Planted Pioneer 35Y54 corn at 28,000 seeds/A (the monitor was reading 30,000 seeds/A).
