CHOOSING THE BEST
We know it is hard for you
to choose the best hybrid for
your farm. There are so
many. Approximately 200
hybrids are being sold in
Huron county . These are
sold by over 20 companies
with an unknown number of
dealers. Often a dealer asks
you to "just buy one or two
units of his corn". If you
chose just one unit from each
company you would have
, enough seed to plant over 60
acres. There must be a way
to evaluate all these hybrids.
The Huron 'Soil and Crop
Improvement directors think

Corn heat unit statistics available
They are trying to make a
summary of farm corn trials
conducted in Huron County.
if you have a corn trial on
your farm, they would
appreciate receiving the
results. They would like to
know now where your trial is
located. This allow them to
see the plots before they are
harvested. After you harvest
the plots, they will collect the
yield information from your
trial. If you are not satisfied
with the results and do not
wish to submit them, that's
okay.
Once the results are sub-
mitted, the directors will
summarize the results. A
summary will be sent to each
,co-operator who submitted
results from his farm. The
summary will include how
each hybrid yielded in the
Ontario Corn Performance
Trials. The average yield
from each farm will be based
at 100 bu/acre. This will
remove yield fluctuations
caused by differences in
fertility, moisture etc. We
think this type of summary
will be beneficial to farmers.
For it to be successful, we
need a large number of farm
trials. We would appreciate
having your trial yields. If
you will let the Soil and Crop
Improvement use your
results, contact one of the
directors or the Ag office.
