The response of sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. rugosa cultivar
Jubilee) to 12 populations and four nitrogen rates was studied in a
field experiment. Populations ranged from 43, 904 to 329,800
plants/ha with nitrogen levels ranging from 0 to 224 Kg/ha. A systematic
spacing design was used. Plant height,...
Studies were conducted in 1976 and 1977 on the effects of harvest
dates on maturity, yields and sugar content of four cultivars of
sweet corn. The cultivars were 'Golden Cross Bantam', 'Jubilee',
'Rapidpak' and 'Tendertreat'. Moisture content of kernels ranged from
80 to 67 per cent for the six harvest...
Fertilizer studies at the Oregon State University Vegetable
Research Farm were conducted for two years to evaluate the effect
of different nutrient sources on yield and selected quality components.
Sources of nutrients included sewage sludge, fresh and dried poultry
manure, a soybean residue from oil extraction, and several mineral
fertilizers....
