Anderson Corn Test Plot North of Wheaton

This plot is found 5-6 miles north of Wheaton along Hwy 75. Planted quite late, May 16th, 2013 and harvested on October 26th. We left the late maturity hybrids in the plot to maybe give us a better idea on what maturity to plant if planting gets delayed again. The results:

The plot yield was actually pretty consistant from the P9305 (93 day) up to 100 day even planted on May 16th but the quality and moisture started going bad at about 98 day.  Very good yields though for north of Wheaton where they just had too much stress this year.
