9 Steps to a Perfect Corn Stand
 
More ears at harvest is the key to higher yield. That requires starting with a picket-fence stand with photocopied plants, achieved by adjusting your planter as conditions change from field to field as well as within fields.
 
 

Corn yield results not from the number of plants in a field but rather the number of ears. Commit to season-long scouting and consider these tips for evaluating ear development.

 
 

Determine the causes of gaps, late-emerging plants and missing ears so you know how to fix the problems in the future.
