Abstract

In a trial of a tall and a dwarf hybrid and one variety in 1976, tall CSH5, with the highest panicle weight and grain yield per plant, had the highest yield under all four planting designs tested. In a second trial of two varieties in 1977, the yield of dwarf CSH6 was fairly constant over four planting designs but that of CSH5 was highest at the narrowest row spacing
