This plot shows that you can't win them all. The competition takes the top two spots with some very nice yields. P0157 is a new 101-day hybrid that is showing up pretty well this year. Yield on P9917 was pretty good but moisture and test weight was very good for a 99-day corn. P9644 is a new 96-day hybrid that we are checking out. Note no response to starter fertilizer here although it was noticeably drier.
