Dale Hicks, Seth Naeve, J. Michael Bennett and, Nancy Bush Bennett (2015)

Summary

This Field Guide is designed to help you become more familiar with the stages of growth of the corn plant, the function of leaves, and the plants’ ability to regrow and recover following defoliation and losses that are associated with delayed planting and reduced plant population. This guide will help you make good decisions regarding replanting based on the results of extensive university research with plant populations, planting dates, and plant damage.
