The aim of this work was to evaluate the agronomical characteristics, chemical composition and removal of potassium of five different genotypes of corn grown for silage. A split-plot complete randomized block design was used, with three hybrids (DKB 390, AGX 8517, A-2560) and two varieties (ALBianco, Piratininga), using two cut heights (20 and 40 cm above soil level) and four replications per treatment. After h...
The aim of this work was evaluating the agronomical and chemical characteristics of 20 different genotypes of maize used as silage. A complete randomized experimental design was used, with three replicates per treatment. Each hybrid was harvested when plants reached 1/3 of milk line stage, using two cut heights: immediately above the senescent leaves (whole-plant) and immediately below ear attachment (half-plan...
